Supplying print-ready artwork avoids delays and makes sure your job comes out exactly as intended. Here is what to check before sending files to us.
Supply files in PDF, format where possible. JPEG and PNG files are acceptable for some jobs but vector formats are preferred as they scale without losing quality. Make sure your document is set up at the correct finished size with at least 3mm of bleed on all edges. Bleed is the area of background colour or imagery that extends beyond the trim line so there are no white edges after cutting.
All text and fonts should be outlined or embedded in the file to avoid font substitution issues. Images within your artwork should be a minimum of 300dpi at final print size. Colours should be set to CMYK rather than RGB, as RGB is a screen colour mode and will shift when converted for print.
If you are unsure about any of this our design team can check your files before production or build your artwork from scratch.
