Leave the hassle of creating artwork to us... our talented designers are standing by to help. Select "I want your designers to create my artwork" above, before adding the product to your basket. On the cart page you'll be given the opportunity to supply further information and upload any files or text we may need. Your designer will be in touch to confirm your requirements and will aim to supply an initial PDF proof for you to review within a couple of working days.
If you'd prefer to supply your own artwork, please download one of our free artwork templates and have a read through our artwork guidelines below. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
Artwork Supply Guidelines
We can print directly from most popular PC and Mac file formats, including:
• PDFs (preferred)
• JPEGs
• InDesign
• Illustrator
• PhotoshopTo upload your artwork, select "I want to upload my own artwork files" above, add the product to your basket and then drag and drop your files into our file uploader. Alternatively you can supply your artwork to us at any time via WeTransfer. On receipt, our printing egg-heads will double check your files and rectify or notify you of any issues.
Before sending us your artwork, please note that a photograph or other pixel-based image needs a resolution of just 72 dpi (dots per inch) to display correctly on screen. However, our high resolution printing process requires images of around 300 dpi. Anything less may print with a pixelated 'jaggy' look. Please check the resolution of your images carefully... just because they look good on screen doesn't mean they'll print properly!
Not to worry though. If we spot anything which could affect the quality of your order, we will be in touch to let you know about the issue before pressing ahead.
Artwork Templates
Our free artwork templates will help you to position the various elements of your design correctly and can be downloaded from the panel on the left of your screen. Before supplying your artwork to us, please remember to hide or delete the Template layer… we wouldn’t want our guidelines to appear on your finished product!
The Bleed Area (1) extends 3mm beyond the finished size of your document and is represented within our template files by a red guideline. Any elements which “bleed” (or extend) off the edge of your document - such as background colours or photographs - should extend 3mm beyond the finished size of your document.
Adding bleed to your artwork is important because your design will be printed onto a larger sheet of paper before being trimmed down to its Finished Size (2), as indicated by the black guideline within our template files. The bleed area compensates for any slight movement during the printing or trimming process which may otherwise result in an ugly white line around the edge of your document.
Finally, our template files feature a green guideline which indicates the Safe Area (3). We wouldn’t want your phone number to be accidentally trimmed off, so any important elements of your design - such as text - should be placed at least 3mm away from the edge (finished size) of your document.
Please ensure you supply your artwork in CMYK colour mode. If you wish to apply a colour profile, please use FOGRA39.
If all this sounds like Double Dutch then don't worry, our talented Studio team will always check your artwork files and attempt to rectify any issues. If we spot a problem which can’t be resolved, we’ll be in touch to discuss your options before printing your order.
If you need any help or advice, our friendly team are standing by to assist.
