bleeds
Explanation:
In commercial printing we use this term to refer to the part of the picture that is printed beyond the edge where the paper gets cut.

"Every application must bleed."
Or
"There must be a bleed in all applications."

Depends on the context of the sentence, of course.

"a full bleed" is also commonly used, though it may have a more specific meaning, such as "bleeding on all four corners of a page or layout".

I'd thought that this term was related to "sangría", and I have seen that a cutline, I guess

Asker: Yes, the cutline is the line at the edge, but the idea here is, apparently, a "full bleed" - the image runs right off the page, all the way to the margin.

Reference

Reference information:
I believe it is to do with bleeding, where text (or logo) in this case is printed right to the edge before being trimmed. See: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/computers_gener...
