Getting your file right

Setting up your file.

Two ways to start, the specs that matter, and what happens after you send it.

Two ways to start

Begin where it suits you.

Start from your own art

You design it.

You design it, or your designer does. Send it, and a person checks it before anything prints.

Start from a template

We set the guides.

Download a setup file sized to your product, drop your art into the marked area, and send it back. Bleed and safe margins are already set for you.

What we need

Send a high-resolution file with bleed.

Engraving, foil, embossing and letterpress each print from line art — one color per printed pass. Send vector art and the edges stay crisp at any size.

Accepted formats
  • AI
  • INDD
  • PDF
  • PSD
  • JPG

Vector-first is the recommended default — not a rule we’ll reject files over. If all you have is a raster file, send it; a person will tell you whether it’ll hold.

Bleed, trim & safe area

Three lines that matter.

Bleed
Art runs past where we cut, so there’s no white edge.
Trim
Where the cut actually lands — the finished size.
Safe
Keep type and logos inside this line so nothing gets clipped.
Bleed, trim and safe area Three nested rectangles. The outer is the bleed where artwork extends past the cut; the middle solid line is the trim where the cut lands; the inner dashed line is the safe area to keep important content within. Your Name KEEP CONTENT INSIDE
Bleed — outer line
Run backgrounds out to here so the cut never leaves a white edge.
Trim — solid line
Where we cut. The finished size of the piece.
Safe — dashed line
Keep type and logos inside this boundary.

Our templates set bleed and safe for you automatically.

After you send it

A real person checks every order before it prints. If something looks off, we’ll reach out before we run it.

This isn’t a print portal. Nothing runs because a script said the dimensions passed — a person looks at your file first.

Ready when your file is.
