A-series (ISO 216) dimensions are exact international standards. US Letter/Legal/Tabloid are the standard ANSI paper sizes used in the US. Pixel dimensions at 300 DPI are calculated directly (inches x 300) and are exact.

Bleed and Margins for Printable Sellers

0.125" (3mm) per edge is the typical bleed used by most print-on-demand services and commercial printers, both in the US and internationally. Bleed means extending your background/artwork past the trim line so that small cutting variance during production doesn't leave a white sliver at the edge.

Page size with bleed = Trim size + (2 x Bleed) on each dimension

Example: US Letter (8.5" x 11") with 0.125" bleed becomes 8.75" x 11.25" before trimming.

This is a typical convention, not a universal standard. Some print services (particularly for book covers or certain photo products) require 0.25" (6mm) or more. Always check your specific print provider's spec sheet before finalizing a file — Etsy printable buyers who self-print at home don't need bleed at all, while POD book and poster services generally do.

Safe margin: keep all text and important content at least 0.25"–0.375" inside the trim line, regardless of whether you're using bleed, so nothing important gets cut off by production variance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard bleed size for printables?
0.125" (3mm) per edge is the most common convention among print-on-demand services and commercial printers. It's a widely-used default, not a universal rule — some services require 0.25" (6mm) instead, so always confirm with your specific print provider.
What size is US Letter in pixels at 300 DPI?
2550 x 3300 pixels (8.5" x 11" x 300 DPI).
What size is A4 in inches and pixels?
A4 is 210 x 297mm exactly (ISO 216 standard), which converts to 8.27" x 11.69", or 2480 x 3508 pixels at 300 DPI.
Do all print services require the same bleed and margin?
No. 0.125"/3mm is the most common default, but it varies by service and product type. Treat every number on this page as "typical," and confirm against your actual print provider before submitting a final file.
