This is a short tutorial explaining four concepts you need to know if you're making comic or manga pages for print. This is how you know where to put speech balloons so they won't be cut off, and how to make some panels bleed off the edge of the page.

I've had preprinted pages and still found myself confused as heck with all the lines and margins. I would go cross eyed looking at that mess. This tut makes all the difference. Thank you.

Thank u for this sooo much! I've been wondering about this a lot. Even your other comments on here are useful! But just to make sure.. So if u want to be recognized and u draw on an A4 size manuscript and submit it, is that ok?

Very informative. I do have one question though.
Is 1/4 inch for the bleed, trim and safety standard for all page sizes? For example if I wanted to do pages that would be 7.2 X 10.2 would I need a trim and bleed larger than 1/4 inch?
