• Files must be submitted with proper orientation to ensure proper back up.
• It is best to try to avoid using borders in your design. If a border is too close to the trim, the trim may be slightly off-center.
• Ensure that your PDF is high res and that all images are CMYK at 300 DPI.
• All type must be outlined (not embedded).
• No linked images.
• If file contains a dieline, it must be a separate spot colour called Dieline and be on its own layer.
• The dieline shape must be a single path stroked.
• Please provide vector only artwork for type, logos, shapes and all other artwork. Only provide embedded raster artwork for actual 4/C images.
• Black type should have the following values: C0, M0, Y0, K100.
• The trim size of the Illustrator file must match the final trim size of the label. Use bleed settings in Illustrator of 0.0625 inches minimum each way.
• If you select a White Ink option with your order, please supply a single file that includes CMYK (if necessary) and a spot colour called exactly White_Ink. Do not supply separate files for CMYK and White Ink. If you want white ink to print under a blue colour, you need to set either the blue shape or the White_Ink shape to overprint to achieve this. You may also want to set a White_Ink shape to knockout so nothing prints on top of it. Remember to set overprints on any Dieline.
• File should be CMYK only (no RGB) with a Dieline and/or White_Ink spot colour depending on your order specifications.
• If you select Black Only option on your order, the file you supply should be K only (not CMYK or RGB) with a Dieline and/or White_Ink spot colours depending on your order specifications.
