Page Bleed

In printing, bleed is printing that goes beyond the edge of where the sheet will be trimmed.

Polotno has native support for bleed. Every page has its own bleed property. By default bleeds are not visible on the workspace and export. To show bleed on the canvas:

store.activePage.set({ bleed: 20 }); // set bleed in pixels

// show bleed area on the <Workspace />
store.toggleBleed(true);

The canvas will have special space around the page where elements can extend beyond the trim line.

Exporting with Bleed

By default, exports do not include the bleed area. Use includeBleed option to export with bleed:

// export PDF with bleed
await store.saveAsPDF({ includeBleed: true });

// export image with bleed
await store.saveAsImage({ includeBleed: true });

// as data URL
await store.toDataURL({ includeBleed: true });

For detailed information on PDF exports with bleed and crop marks, see PDF Export.
