PRINT READY ARTWORK

'Print Ready Artwork' refers to a file that has all the specifications needed to produce a high quality printed end product.  Most often printers require the following points which I can supply all in a print ready .pdf.  I'll also supply standard .pdfs & a variety of other file types depending on the purpose of the artwork.

  • Four-colour process CMYK and not RGB colour space.
  • The document’s page size is the finished trim size.
  • Fonts are embedded or converted to outlines so no fonts are needed.
  • All scans resolution are 300 dpi at 100% of the final image size.
  • Images are embedded in the file.
  • Files are supplied with 3mm bleed.
  • Artwork is at least 5mm from the edge of the page; this is regarded as a safe or quiet area.
  • Black text is 100% black and not a mix of CMYK.
  • Any multiple-page PDF consists of single pages running from the front cover through to the back cover, including blank pages if needed.
