5 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ORDERING YOUR PRINT

Here are 5 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ORDERING YOUR PRINT.

1/ PRINT FILES SHOULD BE SUPPLIED WITH 3MM OF BLEED (DESIGNING YOUR PRINT WITH AN EXTRA 3MM OF COVERAGE BEYOND EACH TRIM MARK IS RECOMMENDED) AND CROP OR TRIM MARKS (THESE ARE MARKS IN EACH CORNER WHERE WE WILL TRIM)

2/ MAKE SURE YOUR FILE HAS BEEN SAVED AS 4 PROCESS COLOURS (CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW AND BLACK) UNLESS THERE ARE ANY SPOT COLOURS SPECIFIED

3/ MAKE SURE THE FINAL PDF HAS BEEN SAVED TO THE CORRECT SIZE IE. A4, A5 ETC

4/ MAKE SURE YOUR SPECIFICATION IS ACCURATE ON YOUR ORDER EG. QUANTITIES, FINISHING SPEC

5/ USING HIGH-RESOLUTION IMAGES IN YOUR LAYOUT IS A CRITICAL STEP TOWARD CREATING A PROFESSIONAL LOOKING FINAL PRINTED PRODUCT. IF YOU SUBMIT SOMETHING FOR PRINT THAT ISN’T THE PROPER RESOLUTION, YOUR IMAGES WILL COME OUT ‘SOFT’, BLURRY, OR EVEN PIXILATED, AT LEAST 300 DPI (DOTS PER INCH) IS RECOMMENDED.
