Before you use the answer

Confirm the production specification with the printer or delivery platform before choosing dimensions. Keep trim, bleed, live area and pixel density distinct. Numerical consistency helps prevent avoidable rework, but a final proof remains necessary to judge the finished layout.

Margins must leave a positive area. Binding needs may make left and right margins unequal.

Why might a result be approximate?

Measurement uncertainty, ideal-model assumptions and floating-point rounding can all matter. Displaying more digits does not improve the original measurement.
