PRINTING SRA3 IN-HOUSE

SRA3 paper size measures 320 x 450mm which is slightly larger than regular A3 (297 x 420mm) that everyone has access to for most office multi-function printing devices. The advantage of being able to print on SRA3 is that you can print your file with bleeds, trim and registration marks. This is great for printing posters, magazines and brochures that have bleeds to the edge, gives you that professional look by printing edge-to-edge with no white border.
