Let me start by saying that I am not in graphic design in any way at all… I’m an editor at a video production post house. I do use Photoshop quite a bit in my work and that’s what’s gotten me into this current situation.
Per the clients request I took his basic logo and added a little hand drawn cartoon character to it for a commercial. He loved the design and now wants me to provide him some artwork so that he can have t-shirts made for various events. He spoke with a t-shirt printer and relayed the specs to me… nothing too complex, just a 4 color bleed jpg. Now the 4 color bleed is where I begin to have problems…. I thought that bleed was the area beyond the border of an image off the trimmed area. Could they mean 4 colors and then various shades of these colors (and to get these shades I assume I just adjust the opacity of the color)?
