Understanding bleed

We could go into this in some depth, but someone has kindly done it for us…

We need bleed on every job that you send to us, so please – if you’re not sure and want your job to run smoothly, read this first!

What is CMYK?

Much of our printing is carried out in process colours – commonly known as CMYK.  Want to understand more?

Quick note to acknowledge receipt of the booklets yesterday, and to say that I'm absolutely delighted with the result - once again, a superb service from Flexpress! I've forwarded your invoice to our finance department with a request that they cough up as soon as possible (they are usually fairly good).

Once again Flexpress have come up trumps.
Thank you for doing the books for us, absolutely perfect, in time, on budget - what more could I ask.
Definitely be doing business again.

Can I thank you all at Flexpress for your fantastic service and printed materials this year for (my company), for Leicester Art Week and for my friend, Jane. I know Jane has found your support invaluable (and has probably saved her sanity!)

Thanks for delivering the Publications Catalogue so promptly – they look great too.

Just wanted to thank you for turning around the co-op leaflets so quickly especially given the unsatisfactory artwork that I first forwarded. This is greatly appreciated.
