  TYPICAL BLEEDS:  
    Fabric Banners - 2" on all sides  
    Vinyl Banners - 1" on all sides  
    Flags - 2" on right side, 1" top & bottom  
    Floormats - Create file at full size. Don 't place any text or important part of the image within 1 inch from the edge. ­This will ensure no part of the image will get cut off by the black rubber border during pressing.
    Pole Pockets - Take care in placing graphics below the pocket so there is no stitching through them. (Non-Applicable in two sided applications with liner, as stitching is hidden)
