# \*Turning Safety Zones Off

Our **SAFE ZONE** feature helps visualize the area that remains uncut when printing. Elements inside the safe zone remain protected/uncut when printed.  

The **BLUE **marks the** BLEED ZONE **for printing. Extend elements to the blue line to ensure the ink reaches the edge of your design after being printed and cut to size.
