How to Prepare Print-Ready Artwork

Sending print-ready artwork is the easiest way to avoid delays and surprises. Before you send your files, run through this short checklist.

1. Use the correct size and bleed

Set your document to the final trimmed size and add 3 mm bleed on every side. Extend background colours and images into the bleed area so no white edges appear after cutting.

2. Keep important content inside the safe area

Keep text and logos at least 3–5 mm inside the trim line. Anything too close to the edge risks being cut off.

3. Work in CMYK and use high-resolution images

Printers reproduce colour using CMYK inks. Convert your artwork to CMYK and make sure photos are at least 300 dpi at the printed size.

4. Outline or embed your fonts

Convert text to outlines or embed fonts in your PDF so the text appears exactly as designed.
