Speedy Prniting does not guarantee color will match the preview on customer’s monitor, as we cannot compensate for a color variance on each customer’s monitor set-up.
The color you see in your monitor is in RGB Color scheme which consists of three colors; Red, Green and Blue. These are the primary colors of light, which computer monitors use to display images on your screen.
The color to be printed on your business card is in CMYK color scheme, which consists of four colors: Cyan, Margenta, Yellow, Black. In full-color process printing, CMYK is the standard method of offset printing.
Therefore, a color will never be printed out to match its on-screen color. Colors vary from monitor to monitor, and different printers produce different color results.

BLEED
Please build your press-ready digital files by adding 0 .125″ dimension for business cards, postcards, rackcards, add 0.125″ for all other products. We require ALL files to be built to the full bleed dimension specified for each trim size. We automatically trim 0.0625″ off of each edge, which will result in the desired trim size Simply add 0.125″ to the overall dimension of your digital layout. Example: a 5″ x 7″ would have a bleed size of 5.125″ x 7.125″.
What’s a bleed?
It is the portion of the card that will be trimmed off when cut to the final size.
Why bleed?
The purpose of a bleed is to continue a color, image or design to the edge of the card.
