Please read this before you send through your files. It is important that they are all set up correctly, otherwise you may incur extra costs for us to fix them, which may in turn delay their delivery.
IMPORTANT: If your files do not comply to these specifications we can not guarantee that your job will be printed correctly or on time.
3mm of bleed is required for all jobs with a background colour, texture or image. If your artwork is not supplied with bleed, we may ask you to resupply it or will charge you for the time it takes us to correct it.
All digital flies must be flattened, i.e. all layers and vector graphics converted to outlines.
Illustrator: To create a PDF, you can either “Save as” a PDF from illustrator or “Print to” a PDF file. To Save as: Use the Press Quality preset. Under the Marks and Bleeds tab, check Trim marks. Also in this tab, in the Bleeds section, put 3mm for each of the values. To Print to a PDF: Select Adobe PDF as the printer. Under the Marks and Bleeds tab, check Trim marks. Also in this tab, in the Bleeds section, put 3mm for each of the values.
InDesign: To create a PDF, you need to use the File > Export option. Always use the 'Press Quality' preset. Under the 'Marks and Bleeds' tab, check 'Trim marks'. Also in this tab, in the 'Bleed' section, put 3mm for each of the values.
Photoshop: Set up your document size to include bleed. E.g. if your final printed piece is to be A7 (74 x 105mm) make your Photoshop document 80 x 111 mm. To create your PDF: Select File > Print then select Adobe PDF as the printer. Click the 'Page Setup' button, in the Adobe PDF Settings tab, select 'Press Quality' in the Default Settings dropdown. In the Adobe PDF 'Page Size' section, you will need to add a custom paper size 10mm larger than your Photoshop document, click 'Add/Modify' and select the new page size you created, click 'OK'. In the 'Position' section, ensure that the 'Center Image' option is checked. The 'Scaled Print Size' option should be 100%. In the 'Output' tab check the corners for 'Crop Marks'. Click 'Bleed' and enter 3mm as the value. Click 'Print' and your PDF will be created.
