Print Resources
Remember that we can design and produce your artwork for you at very competitive prices. However, many customers produce their own artwork and this information should help you keep your costs low and the output brilliant!
Here's a brief summary for checking your artwork.
- Please allow 3mm bleed on all sides of your artwork
- Convert RGB Colours to CMYK within your artwork files
Our workflow is based on PDF format. Ideally you should send your files to us in this format. For other formats we accept see Acceptable file formats at the bottom of this page.
PDF Pre-requisites
- 300dpi resolution image files
- Text needs to be converted to paths
- Transparencies need to be flattened
- Overprint' needs to be turned off when originating files
