Review our quick checklist below to ensure your artwork is ready for print:
  • Ensure all fonts are included
  • Text is legible and images are crisp
  • Page layout is correct (single/double sided)
  • Ensure artwork includes bleed
  • Artwork matches the specified dimensions
  • Ensure image resolution is sufficient (at least 300dpi)
  • Colours are in CMYK mode
We accept the following formats:
  • Illustrator and InDesign Files: Must be converted to a PDF or EPS Format.
  • Photoshop Files: To get the highest print quality, it is best to save your files as TIFF files.
  • High resolution JPEG files are acceptable if they meet the resolution standard of at least 300dpi.
Bleed is background colours and/or images that should extend 5mm beyond the cut line. In other words, the bleed is the area to be trimmed off. After trimming, the bleed ensures that no unwanted white edges occur in the final trimmed document. All artworks require 5mm bleed. A 3mm margin from the edge of the document is also required to avoid any text or images from being cut off, this is called the safe area.
