Important Aspects
Please always create the design in its final printing size. To edit texts we temporarily need the original font files. It is important to attach all placed image files saved with used color profile at a minimum resolution of 300 dpi (Bitmaps should have a minimum of 1200 dpi). Spot colors, white and partial varnish, if used, should be created and explicit named (Pantone or HKS, white, varnish). Logos and texts must have a minimum distance of 1.5 mm to the bleed. Visuals, graphic elements and patterns placed up to the keyline should extend at least 1.5 mm beyond the line. Please observe the minimum line widths according to the specivic printing process. Barcodes are only readable with a minimum size of 80% and sufficient color contrast. For the EU a minimum font size is necessary according to EUPFIC. No already created trappings are required. For more details, please refer to the respective print specifications.
