Artwork ready to print? 

A few key points to remember before sending your print ready file (PDF {preferred}, jPeg or PNG file):

  • Correct size and bleed: Please allow a 3mm bleed around your artwork's final size. For example: An A4's size (210mm x 297mm) with a bleed is 216mm x 303mm.
  • Please try and ensure all images used are 300dpi resolution to avoid them looking blurry/fuzzy when printed.
  • CMYK colour mode, not RGB. Our machines can convert RGB to CMYK, but we can not guarantee the correct colour.

  • "Safe Zone": Keep text approximately 5-10mm from the edge to ensure no information is cropped during printing or finishing.
