Bleed is the term used for printing (usually images) that goes right to the edge of the paper.
For a professional look, position the illustration you want to bleed outside the page perimeter guide lines by a minimum of 3mm. The page sheet size is shown as heavy black box
in example illustration.
After printing, we will trim off the extra 3mm bleed and your illustration will go right up to the edge of the paper rather than leave an unsightly edge to the trim..
You can bleed all round the page or just on one, two or three sides - just remember to add 3mm to the bleed edges.
Also be sure to keep all text at least 5mm away from page edges to avoid being inadvertently trimmed off
