How to Set Up Files
FILE FORMAT:
We accept the following file formats TIF, TIFF, JPG, EPS, AI, PSD, and PDF.

RESOLUTION:
All file formats must have a minimum of 300 dpi (dot per inch) resolution.
The images designed for the web are done at a low screen resolution of 72 dpi.
Print images need to be created at 300 dpi or there will be a  drop in quality.

COLOR MODE:
All color artwork and/or images must be provided in CMYK
(cyan, magenta, yellow, black) color mode.
All black & white artworks and/or images must be provided in grayscale color mode.

BLEED:
Bleed must extend further that the cut line.  It is recommended that each file bleed 1/8” (.125)
What's a bleed?
It is the portion of the card that will be trimmed off when cut to the final size.
Why bleed?
The purpose of a bleed is to continue a color, image or design to the edge of the card.

SAFE ZONE:
All critical elements (text, images, logos, etc.) must be kept at least 0.125" inside the edge. Anything left close to
edge may be cut off during trimming.

BORDERS:
Please allow 1/8" cutting space around your files. No borders are recommended, as shifting in the cutting process
may make borders appear uneven.
