ART RESOLUTION REQUIREMENTS
- All artwork, design and images not designed by Prestige Graphics must be provided in minimum of 300 DPI and CMYK color mode for best printing results. Prestige Graphics WILL NOT print any artwork that is blurry, pixelated or poor in quality. Prestige Graphics is also not responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions if we have to convert your design from RGB to CMYK color modes.
BLEED AND MARGIN REQUIREMENTS
- Since cutting cannot be guaranteed to be exactly in the same place for a large quantity of print products, you must stretch the background (if there is one) 0.125 inch outside of the trim line on each side (this is called a “bleed”) and place all critical elements (text, images, graphic elements, logos, etc.) 0.125 inch inward on each side from the trim line. Anything left too close to the trim line within 0.125 inch inward or 0.125 inch outward may be cut. For Large quantities we recommend no borders due to shifting in the cutting process because they may appear uneven.
- If you are still unsure about the explanation of the bleed area please contact your Graphic Designer for clarity and accuracy or contact us for assistance.
BOUND/BIND JOBS
- Our automated systems require that art is uploaded as a single, multi-page PDF file. Page sorting is the same as when viewing your book; for example: 28-page booklet or calendar PDF: page 1 = outside front cover; page 2 = inside front cover; page 3-26 = subsequent pages; page 27 = inside back cover; page 28 = outside back cover.
