English term or phrase: full bleed image
I am looking for the translation of this term. As I understood, there is a notion of margin included in this term, but I cannot figure out the translation.
Thank you for your help!

I found an English definition which is helpful:
A full bleed image extends or "bleeds" over the edges of a page. A full-bleed image does not show borders or white space. In order to achieve this, the page is trimmed on the outer three edges up to 5mm. Be sure to keep important items in your photo (e.g. heads and feet, or text) away from these edges.
