To ensure the fastest turn-around and to avoid additional file-handling charges, please be sure your artwork meets our guidelines.

Before sending us your file, please unsure it meets the following criteria:

1. PDF File Type - Please provide your files in high quality pdf format.
2. Correct Page Size - Your file should be the finished product size plus a 3mm bleed e.g. standard business cards (90 x 55mm) should be set up 96 x 61mm.
3. Maximum Ink levels - These are 225% for letterheads and 275% for almost everything else. At these levels this removes the potential for set-off.
4. 3mm Bleed - Make sure that your background colours and photos extend out fully to the edge of the bleed. This allows tolerance during guillotining.
5. 4mm Quiet Zone - Keep important text or other elements 4mm away from the edge (the quiet zone). This again allows tolerance during guillotining.
6. No Spot Colours or Pantone Colours - We only accept CMYK process colours.
7. No Four-Colour Black Text - This removes the potential for mis-registration and blurred text.
8. Minimum 8pt Type Size (not applicable to Black) - This removes the potential for blurred text at small point sizes.
9. 300dpi Image Resolutions - This ensures a quality print rendering of your images.
10. No Crop or Printers Marks - Please do not add these. Our process will add everything that is required before it goes to print.
