Artwork

We want your finished product looking super! For this to happen we need excellent artwork. If you're supplying us with artwork we have a few specific requirements to ensure the best results for your products!

Each product has specific requirements we will go through the general ones here in some detail.

The bleed is the area of your artwork that extends beyond the sized of the finished document. This prevents any white lines appearing in your product when printed. We recommend a bleed area of 3 mm at each side of your design.

No text or images should be placed in the quiet area this is to ensure that no text or image gets cut or folded in the finishing process. We recommend a quiet area of 5 mm from the edge of the finished document size.

If you don't have bleed or quiet areas in your artwork please contact us so we can review it. 

Any finished artwork being sent to us for print should be sent to us as a print ready .pdf

No printers marks required.
Fonts embedded.
All spot colours & images converted to CYMK using Fogra 39 ICC colour profile.
Flatten transparencies.
Document orientation right reading.
Black text 100% Black.  Rich Black - large areas 100% black & 40% cyan.
Easily identified file name.
Single multiple page PDF, not in spreads.

300 dpi. is the minimum resolution for print products. Anything below this will result in pixilation and a poor quality image.
