Set the file color mode to CMYK to ensure that the printed colors are as close as possible to your design — RGB colors from the screen will be distorted when printed.

For close-up viewing, use 300 DPI · For large-scale work viewed from a distance, use 100–150 DPI at actual size · Vector work does not require concern about resolution.

Create the file at the actual size of the work, 1:1 scale, or a clear reduced proportion, such as 1:10, and specify the scale to our team.

Extend the background color or image beyond the edge of the work by 3–5 mm and leave a safe margin for important text away from the edge to prevent it from being cut.

Create Outlines / Convert to Curves for all fonts before sending to prevent font distortion or disappearance when opening the file on another computer.

Embed all images used, do not send as links, as linked images will not be included in the work file, causing images to be missing or low resolution.

Create die-cut or cut lines as a separate layer or define them as Spot Color for the cutting machine to read the lines correctly.

Check spelling, numbers, and content thoroughly, as the original file submitted is considered confirmed by the client.
