Artwork and Print Guidlines
To ensure the best possible print quality, please follow our artwork guidelines before uploading your files. Correct artwork setup helps prevent delays and ensures accurate printing.
Print Guidelines
In this example, the sticker size is 85x55mm
Bleed Area: 91 x 61 mm
If you’ve got a background colour or pattern, make sure it extends a bit beyond the actual size of the card. That way, you’ll never end up with white borders accidentally.
Trim/Cut Size: 85 x 55 mm
Just like the name says, this is where we cut your cards. We do our absolute best to make sure all your cards are centred and uniform but be sure to read about the safe printing area.
Safe Printing Area: 79 x 49 mm
You probably have any important text or design elements within this area, which isn’t much smaller than the actual size of the card. To guarantee nothing gets cut off, keep everything inside this box.
