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 I create a recycled Perfect Bound Notebook?

Creating a recycled Perfect Bound Notebook is both fun and easy, offering a range of options! Begin by selecting your eco-friendly paper—choose between Recycled Silk or Recycled Uncoated, based on the finish you're looking for. Your Notebook will be printed with a personalised touch, making it not only stylish but also sustainable.

Should I set up my cover artwork as a spread or individual pages?

At Printed.com, we can arrange your cover artwork with single pages lined up one after the other, or as one spread with the spine in the centre. During the printing process, these pages are assembled correctly.

If you choose to upload your artwork as single pages, please upload four files in running order, front outer, front inner, back inner, back outer. If you would like your inner covers to be blank, please insert two blank pages for these.

If you choose to upload your artwork as spreads, please upload two files; one for the outer covers and one for the inner covers.

You don't need to provide artwork for your inner pages, we'll take care of that part.

What is the difference between leaves and pages?

A "page" refers to one side of a sheet of paper, so when you open a book, you're looking at two pages (left and right). A "leaf," on the other hand, is a single sheet of paper in the book, which has two pages (front and back). Therefore, if you have 100 pages, you actually have 50 leaves.
