To ensure your files print at the highest quality and without delays, please follow these requirements:
File Format
- Supply artwork as high-resolution PDF or vector files (e.g., AI, EPS, SVG).
- Vector files are ideal for logos, text-heavy designs, or graphics that need to be scaled without losing quality.
Image Resolution
- All raster images should be a minimum of 150 dpi at final print size.
Colour Format
- Full-colour images must be supplied in CMYK format for accurate print reproduction. Example: A photograph should be converted from RGB to CMYK before submission.
- Single-colour prints should be set as either: The correct Pantone colour (include the Pantone reference in the file name, e.g., “Logo_Pantone186C.pdf”) Or 100% black only for pure black designs.
Sizing
- If the supplied image is not at the intended print size, clearly note the required dimensions in the file name. Example: “logo size 50mm width.pdf”
Bleed and Crop Marks
- Where possible, “step” the image (position multiple copies as they should appear on the print sheet).
- Include 3mm bleed on all sides with crop marks to ensure clean trimming. Example: A sheet with a finished size of 210x297mm should be supplied as 216mm × 303mm with crop marks.
