Design Considerations

We do our best to give our customers the best color match for their artwork. However, getting the exact color match is not always possible. The texture, finish, and type of material used for the project could affect the colors on the final printed product.

We recommend using CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key or Black) for printed projects. This ensures that you will get the right colors in the final printed product. Learn more about CMYK here.

Yes, we can. However, the switch can make the colors different in the final print. We will send you a PDF proof of your file so you can see how your project will look like before we begin printing.

Some images appear blurry when printed because of low image resolution, which makes the artwork look pixelated. To fix this, use an image with at least 300 dpi. See our Guide to Image Resolution.

You can only upload one design per order. If you want to use multiple designs, you will have to place an order for each.

The bleed helps ensure that there are no unwanted white borders or hairlines visible in the final print product. Don’t forget to include it in your artwork!

You will find all your designs when you log in to your account. Click the Saved Designs tab to see all your saved artwork.

Yes, you can. To update a previous design, go to “Your Account”, then “Saved Designs”. Afterwards, click the Duplicate & Modify button to edit your artwork.

If you are applying foil or spot UV to text, set the font size to 8 pt. or larger. For borders or strokes, they should be at least 1.5 pt. thick. Lastly, add the foil or spot UV mask in a different layer from the CMYK layer and limit the coverage to 50% of the surface area. If adding both effects, make sure to use a separate layer for each. If you are sending a file that’s not AI or PSD, ensure that it still consists of separate layers such as EPS, PDF, or PUB.
