A bleed refers to printing that goes beyond the edge of the sheet before trimming. The bleed gives the printer a small amount of space to account for movement of the paper, slight variations in cutting, and other such factors. The purpose of the bleed is to ensure that no white space is visible around the edges of your document after it is trimmed to size.

This check verifies whether the document has been set up with a 5mm bleed. Search for the check ‘TRIMSBLEED’ to verify that all objects on the page reach the bleed guide.

Choose File>Document Setup to set a bleed area of 5mm.
