Safety Margins: Text and important images must fall within the red boxes.Extending important element beyond these lines can cause problems during cutting, folding and assembly.Pants of images on text can end up being trimmed off or fall directly on a fold.
Cut Lines: This is approximately where your artwork will be trimmed. Keeping all text and important images inside the 1/8th inch safety margins will prevent their unintended loss during cutting.
Bleeds: This area is going to be completely trimmed away during the cutting process. Only solids colors background images on foreground images that intentionally run off the page should extend though this area. Having bleeds ensures that your artwork will not have a thin white border around it.
Folds: Be very careful when running any text or important images over folds. Text, especially text under 9pt. can be hand to read if it is falling on a fold.
