Hello,
I recently sent a proof for a CDV to a printer, but there was a blockage regarding the safe zone and bleed area. I have therefore added a bleed area and ensured that nothing exceeds the safe zone.
However, once I export the file as a jpeg, the bleed area is visible and I would like it to be hidden. How can I do that, please?
Thank you in advance!

The bleed must be visible and printed as it helps to compensate for cutting shifts...
Generally, in a PDF, we use page areas for the provider to manage all that... but that's not possible in a JPG image
Others ask for dimensions so that their imposition software aligns with the center of the image...
Personally, a JPG for business cards is not great... you will lose all the finesse in the small characters....
