We often hear that customers have artwork that’s supposedly ready for print.
So we created a checklist for you to go through so that you can double-check if your design is indeed ready to go.
If all criteria are met – your design is prepared for print. If you’re unsure, shoot it over to us for review.
- The artwork must be submitted as a PDF file.
- Ensure your PDF is high resolution and all images are CMYK. We only accept 300 dpi files and no less.
- All fonts should be embedded or outlined.
- Please keep all text at least 0.125″ inside the cut-line.
- The bleed for Standard Products is 0.125″. The bleed for Booklets and Presentation Folders is 0.25″.
- Use black (100% K) only for fine lines and text.
- We recommend using C 60 M 40 Y 40 K 100. This will give you a deep, dark, rich black.
On the spot UV template file, indicate the spot UV areas by using 100% K. Non-UV areas should be white. For best results, ensure this file is a vector.
If you require one side to be completely UV-coated, the corresponding page in your template file should be entirely filled with 100% K.
If ordering a 4/4 job with spot UV on only one side, please ensure that page 1 of your artwork is the spot UV side.
CAUTION: Our spot UV machine manufacturer does not recommend extending the spot UV design to the trimmed edge of the card, as there would be a high possibility of the spot UV peeling off along the trimmed edges. There should be at least a 5mm spot UV-free area around the edges. If you supply spot UV files with full bleed, please note our automation will automatically apply a 5 mm gap (from the trim edge) on your spot UV files to prevent the risks of the trimmed edges lifting/peeling. The non-spot UV varnished area may be visible along the edges as a result. It is best to avoid full bleed on your spot UV files for the above reasons.
Spot UV Accuracy
Positioning of the spot UV cannot be 100% guaranteed. Please note that there may be a shift of approximately 1/16" in the spot UV position on the printed product. We do not recommend placing spot UV on small text or very small images.
We hope this checklist helps you ensure your artwork is ready for print.
