Took me 2 extra days on a print ad because I didn't check the bleed zone first

Bleed zones are just a suggestion, right?

@the_elliot I've learned the hard way that bleed zones are NOT a suggestion, trust me. You'll be redoing that whole print job if you skip them.

Man, that reminds me of the time @the_elliot decided to eyeball margins on a batch of 500 flyers for a charity 5k. I watched those things get printed and realized halfway through the run the text was SLIDING off the left edge. Sometimes you just gotta trust the numbers and not your gut, especially with print stuff.
