SETTING UP YOUR ARTWORK top of page

Bleeds - If you want your image to extend to the edge of the card (full bleed), a bleed of no less than 1/8" should be used. Please see our templates for a graphical depiction of this.

Document Size - Our standard card size is 3.375" X 2.125" with a corner radius of .09". For other products, (such as Key Tag and Rolodex cards), see the individual template pages for exact measurements.

150 Line Screen - We recommend that you send artwork at 300 DPI for most jobs, or 1200 DPI for line art. For the best print quality please send Vector Graphics. Programs capable of producing vector graphics include Adobe Illustrator and vector files should be saved in the .eps or .ai format.

INCLUDING FONTS AND GRAPHICS top of page

Fonts - Include all printer and screen fonts used to create your artwork. If you're positive that we won't have to make any changes to your file, you can convert all type to curves / outlines.

Linked Graphics - Be sure to include all of your placed / imported images when you send your artwork. Missing graphics and fonts cause your job to be delayed. If you are using a page layout program such as In Design missing graphics can be an issue. We recommend exporting your artwork from In Design as an EPS after creating your text to outlines. For help doing this please call our Art Department at 1.800.808.7472.
