For optimal printing results, please ensure that the file you submit is a high-resolution or vector EPS or PDF, fonts converted to outlines (curves or paths) with bleed and trim marks included.

Vector-based artwork is preferred for graphics to avoid pixelation issues.

Images should have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi ( TIF, JPG file) at 1:1 scale. Failure to meet these specifications may result in incorrect printing of your product.
Remember, if your files do not meet our specifications, your product may be printed incorrectly, we will ask you to resubmit it or charge you (with your approval) for the time needed to make adjustments.

All colours modes must be converted to CMYK or Pantone depending on printing process. We are not responsible for print results such as discoloration or unexpected outcomes if the supplied file is in RGB or Hex Code.
Digital artwork will be output as CMYK. However, any colors that need to match a specified color need to be called out as a Pantone solid coated number.

File Delivery:
Email (files smaller than 5MB)
For large files use a file sharing service such as WeTransfer or Dropbox
Please ensure share links do not require a login/ password.
We require a JPG of the final artwork to ensure that the final digital output matches your EPS or PDF supplied file.
Send artwork early to avoid production delays

NOTE: Digital proof shall not be considered as the guarantee of colour accuracy.

Vector vs. Bitmap:
Images come in one of two formats: vector or bitmap (raster). Bitmap images are made of pixels, which will lose resolution and blur when scaled, making them unsuitable for clear printing at lower resolutions. In contrast, vector graphics are composed of mathematical paths, making them perfectly scalable without any loss of resolution.

A vector logo can be used on anything from a small business card to a large billboard without losing detail. This is why we prefer vectorised images. Most raster/bitmap images can be vectorized by our graphic designer, although this may result in slight changes to the artwork. The only exception is photographic images, which are printed using a halftone technique (explained further below).

Note: photographs cannot be vectorized.

What is DPI?
DPI stands for “Dots Per Inch,” which refers to the number of dots printed in an image per inch. More dots mean more detail and a clearer image. This resolution makes it easier for our artist to convert your image to vector or print it as is on your product.

Spot Colors:
Spot colors are the most commonly used technique in screen, pad printing and laser etching (engraving), producing clean, crisp edges. Each of these spot colors must be handled individually during the printing process.
