ARTWORK GUIDELINES
Maximum Print Area: 4″x6″ or 5″x7″
Colour Format: CMYK
Preferred File Format: vector based .AI, .EPS or PDF with all type to outlines.
Usable File Formats: .PNG or .PSD files with a transparent background (our printer prints white – so a white background will print white)
File Resolution: Minimum 300 dpi/ppi
Tips to print the best things possible:
- If you are supplying vector files (we love that), please make sure to outline your type (we may have thousands of fonts, but we might not have one you are using).
- Bigger is better – if you are uncertain of the resolution you are exporting – go big. We can always down-size and image, but a 72 dpi image will not provide a satisfactory result for your print.
- If your supplied artwork is suitable, we will size and prepare it for print at no extra charge. If your supplied artwork requires digital surgery, we will inform you and provide options.
- Send us an example. If you are uncertain whether or not your artwork will print the way you want it to – email us an example at [email protected]
- Don’t Panic! If you have questions or are unsure about something, shoot us an email or drop us a line during business hours. We want to print your things so that they look the best they possibly can. If your things don’t look good, we don’t look good!
