3mm overfill for DVD covers!

[petelms]

Hello!

I'm going to have my dvd covers printed soon, but I have one question:

How can I add those 3mm overfills that are needed for printing for my DVD covers inside Photoshop? My cover dimensions are: 272mm x 184mm.

Please, if possible, could someone send me a little photoshop-project which has DVD covers and those bleeds: pete.lamsa@kolumbus.fi I would love check out how they are done.

What if I have to send those covers in .PDF-format for printing?

Here are dimensions for DVD-covers:

Thank you!

I don´t know if this helps you but it´s a start:

In finnish and all ;-)

I´m not sure, but I think you have to do add the bleed manually when working in Photoshop.

You probably would be better off doing this kind of stuff in InDesign or a similar program.

Anyway I sent you a template I just made...
