1. Bleed Area:
The very edges of the document are called
the bleed area. To prevent an unwanted white border from
showing at the edge of your document, be sure to extend
any background colors or design elements all the way to the
edge.
2. Crop Area:
This is the finished size of the business card.
The actual cut happens close to the trim line, but due to the
mechanical tolerances involved in printing, the actual cut can
happen anywhere from the bleed area to the safe margin.
This is why it is important to keep your text and important
images within the safe margin.
3. Type Safety Margin:
Please remember to keep all important
information, like names, addresses, phone numbers or logos
within the Type safety margin to ensure that they aren’t cut
off when your document is trimmed.

There will be problem. All monitors display colors using RGB colors (red, green, blue). Meanwhile, all printing presses print full-color images using other colors; the CMYK colors (cyan, magenta, yellow and black). The RGB color spectrum is larger than the CMYK color spectrum. As such, it is possible to create colors in RGB that you cannot make in CMYK. These colors are said to be "outside the CMYK color gamut". So if you are working in an photo editing program such as Adobe Photoshop, and are working in RGB mode, you can create colors that look great on your monitor, but are nonetheless impossible to print. This is because before a file can be printed on an offset press it must be converted to CMYK. If your image editing program has a "CMYK Preview" option, you should always work in that mode to allow you to gage the limitations of the CMYK color gamut. Otherwise, you should always work in CMYK mode.

If you want an specific area printed in solid black in your artwork, 100% black (K) will not result in as solid as you want, which means the black area need to made by mixing other colors of ink with black ink to produce a much darker, deeper black. Your CMYK values should be:
