back is bigger than the front #2

when you print the wallet.. the 'back' prints bigger than the 'front' and when you use the website you can see that indeed on the site the back is significantly bigger than the front

That is intentional. It's so that when you cut out the wallet using the front side as a guide, the backside's color will "bleed" all the way to the edges, even if your printer is out of alignment.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleed_(printing)

Should be by design. You cut out the front, cut of some portion of the back but it is just background anyhow. So you have a neat and completely colored back side.
