How do I set up my artwork for print?

Do you provide downloadable templates? 

On most of our product pages, you can find free downloadable templates to help you set up your artwork for print. They’re available in AI, IDML and PDF formats to suit the design software you’re working in. Our downloadable templates include key information on creating artwork as well as instructions on how to save out your print-ready PDF. 

What is bleed? 
Bleed is an area of print outside the document that must be added to your artwork before it’s sent off for print. By adding the all-important bleed (a minimum of 3mm on all edges), there’ll be no risk of white space left on your document and it'll be trimmed correctly without cutting into any design. Some products require a different amount of bleed, so be sure to check our downloadable templates to find out the correct amount. 

What is safe area?
The safe area is the space inside where your print will be trimmed. Keeping any important parts of your design away from this area will make sure that they aren’t accidentally trimmed off due to the natural movement while your print gets finished. Our downloadable templates will indicate the recommended amount of safe area for your print. 

What’s the difference between RGB and CMYK? ​​
RGB is the colour gamut used to display images on a computer screen, and stands for Red, Green and Blue. CMYK is the colour gamut used for conventional printing, and stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. Unless you’re printing Gicée Fine Art Prints, Photographic Prints or Mugs, please set up your artwork in CMYK. 

Why do I need to embed fonts? 
If you don’t embed fonts and your document is opened on another computer system that doesn’t have access to the original fonts, different fonts will be substituted instead. This could really affect the look of your finished print. Embedding fonts into your original design will stop them from changing. Find out how to embed your fonts here

How to export a PDF 
Exporting your design into a print-ready PDF is easy. We’ve created some handy video guides which will take you through the process which you can find here

Find lots more artwork tips here, including if you’re printing any special finishes such as foiling. For products with multiple pages, such as Brochures or Booklets, explore our book printing guide here

How can print support outdoor marketing campaigns?

Outdoor print materials are a fantastic way to boost your marketing efforts. With bold visuals and smart placement, they grab attention, build brand recognition, and share your message effectively. Whether it’s banners, seating or signs, these materials are perfect for reaching your audience in busy, high-traffic areas. Plus, unlike digital ads outdoor print still offers lasting visibility for the cost, making it a reliable and impactful choice for your brand.

How long can they last?

Our outdoor prints are designed for durability, with weather-resistant materials and UV protection, ensuring they can withstand environmental conditions. Longevity can vary depending on the product and based on factors like placement and exposure. Need assistance selecting the best option for your needs? Contact The Team for tailored recommendations.

Simply choose the A1 size and weatherproof material for a durable and high-quality option.
