What Is Bleed?
Bleeds allow you to run artwork to the edge of a page. On a press, the artwork is printed on a large sheet of paper and then trimmed down to size. If you do not allow for a 1/8 of an inch bleed, any misalignment while cutting will result with the artwork not running to the edge of the paper. Bleeds ensure you get the results you need

The Printing Impressions 400
ColorFX was recently featured on The 2014 Printing Impressions Top 400. This was a big deal to us, as this ranking includes all leading printing companies in the U.S. and Canada.
Now in its 31st Year, the Printing Impressions 400 provides the industry’s most comprehensive listing of the leading printing companies in the United States and Canada ranked by annual sales volume. The listings include company name and headquarters location; parent company, if applicable; current and previous year’s rankings; most recent and previous year’s fiscal sales; percentage change; primary product specialties; principal officer(s); number of employees and manufacturing plants; as well as the firm’s complete range of in-house digital and analog printing process capabilities.
Company rankings for the current and previous year are based on sales figures reported to us in 2014. Therefore, printers that revised their previous year revenues may have changed their ranking as compared with where they were actually ranked on last year’s Printing Impressions 400. Similarly, the percentage change in sales is calculated based on the most recent sales information provided.
Also, individual printing companies that are part of larger graphic arts networks are not listed separately. In essence, to do so would be to show sales figures twice. Instead, only the revenues of the entire umbrella corporation are included. And, in the case of a holding company that owns a graphic arts firm, the printing entity is listed in our rankings with the holding company’s name and location appearing beneath it.
