This zine is intended to be purely digital. However, to open up for future opportunities, please include bleed margins.

Inner margin (Blue): CONTINUE DESIGN, avoid important details (e.g. important text)
Outermost margin (Green): CONTINUE DESIGN, but DO NOT include important details that you would not like to be cut off (e.g. faces, text)
If you are doing a double page, keep in mind that a fold would obscure the center if printed

Create a new canvas with these specifications, image is compressed
