These artwork guidelines will assist you in achieving the greatest possible results for your project.  If you would like on of our templates as a .psd file or a .indd file please just contact us.

High quality artwork is the key to a professional looking print.  For best results please save all photoshop, TIFF, or EPS images at 300 DPI in CMYK format.  If this is all jargon to you just give us a call or email your artwork to us and we’ll let you know if it is up to standard. Keep in mind those images with resolutions lower than 300 DPI may not reproduce well depending on size or the image.  Again, if you have questions please just send us your artwork and we’ll let you know.   
We try to match printed color to digital proofs the best we can but due to different color profiles and monitor calibrations colors can vary from digital proof to print. 

Bleed, Margins & Design Area

Bleed:  Due to documents shifting while being cut, background art should extend at least 1/8” outside the cutting line. 

Internal Margin:  Because the documents can shift while being cut all critical information, text, logos and images must be kept within this 1/8” internal margin.   

Design Area:  This area is open for any design or information your project need on it.

Adobe Photoshop
