• Bleed: A bleed is an extension of your background color or image going beyond the intended trim size of your piece. Please make sure your artwork has at least 1/8 inch (3 mm) margin of bleed. This ensures that the color or image continues to the edge of your piece. Please build your press-ready digital files by adding 1/8 inch or 1/4 inch all around dimension for all products. If your artwork has no bleeds, no bleed margin is required, leave it as the final trim size.

• Colors: All colors in your document must be CMYK. If you use spot colors in your design please convert them to cmyk before saving. If your job requires pantone color (ie: 4 + 1 or 4 + 2 jobs), save the document in CMYK plus the spot color(s). If you have difficulty converting from RGB to CMYK, let us know and we will process the conversion, however exact color match is not guaranteed.

• PDF – All fonts should be embedded in PDF files or created outlines.

• EPS – All fonts should be converted to paths or curves in EPS files.

• PSD – All layers must be flattened.

• Image Quality: Photos or scans should always be saved as CMYK. All scanned images should be of a professional standard. Images need to be saved at an appropriate resolution of 300 dpi or above for continuous tone reproduction (photos and/or illustrations).

• Text Safe Area: To avoid having text cut off during trimming, make sure that no text is within 1/4″ (0.25 inch) from the edge of your document.

• Overprint: Do not enable the “overprint fill” feature. The feature will cause unexpected results during printing. We are not responsible for any unexpected outcomes when this feature is enabled.
