General Print and File Specs
Before submitting your file for printing, please ensure it meets the following requirements.
File format
High resolution PDF files are preferred and provide the fastest turnaround time. We also support various file formats such as .EPS, .AI, .PSD, and .JPG
Please convert any Microsoft Word, Publisher or Powerpoint files to PDF before sending them through.
File/document dimensions:
Your file/document should be set to the finished size you want it to be i.e. A4 (297 x 210mm). This should be done at the beginning of your design, otherwise you can resize existing templates if you have canva pro. Please note, if we need to resize or adjust your file there may be additionalcosts.
Bleed and Trim
If your artwork has colour or imagery that goes to the edge of your page, you’ll need to have 3mm bleed set up in your file and make sure your artwork extends to this area.
Trim guides are not essential but please be specific about your document's finished size and ensure bleed is provided if necessary.
Colour
All images and graphics should be converted to CMYK. Files containing RGB images may produce colors that differ significantly from what you see on screen.
Ensure all spot or PMS colors are correctly configured in your document. For digital printing, we will strive to match the colors as closely as possible, but some variation may occur.
Booklets
Please provide booklet files as individual consecutive pages, not as spreads. We will handle the page imposition on our end.
Logos and graphics
Logos should be supplied as vector format such as .AI, .EPS, .SVG, or .PDF
Vector graphics can be scaled up or down to any size without losing quality. They are essential when used in various applications, from small business cards to large signage.
If your logo is only able to be supplied as .JPG or .PNG, please ensure it’s large enough resolutionfor your design requirements.
Imagery
All imagery should be supplied as minimum 300 dpi resolution, proportionate to the final print size required.
