Yeah, it can vary a lot - I've got a Tokyopop book - forgot which one and I'm not going to look for it - where on a number of pages, the word balloons closest to the edge are either cut off or buried deep in the binding. (Actually, the binding takes up a lot of the trim - I forgot to mention it on the tut.)

Tokyopop's got slightly smaller bleed and trim sizes, but they've probably got access to more expensive printing equipment than the printer I use (Dreamweaver Press), plus my printer deals more with people who are just starting out, and even quarter-inch sizes are so much easier to deal with than .216" or whatever funky measurement it is that Tpop uses. Tpop also doesn't use the Safety, but if they've got less tolerance in teh equpiment for error, the they can afford to do it.

At any rate, if you figure out how to use these concepts from this, it's fairly easy to work out how Tpop does it.
