Design Guideline
Design Guideline
If you will be designing artwork for this product, please read through the guideline as our PDF requirements are quite specific. This guide will walk you through the document setup instructions and also the PDF Export process. We recommend reading through our User Guide for any further information.
Image Resolution Guide
When using imagery in any design for print, resolution is one of the most important factors to enable a high quality print output.
Refer to our User Guide for more information.

Spot Colours / Pantone Colours
Our system is based on a 4 colour printing system (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black). Please convert any spot colours that you may have used in your artwork to CMYK. If your file contains spot colours, these will not be printed.
Adobe Illustrator Guide
Create your document size as per the template instruction. This document size is also the Trim Size. Enter the amount of artboards to suit the product you are designing for. 1 Artboard is the same as one sided printing. 2 Artboards are double sided etc.
Here you will need to enter the documents Bleed setting. For a business card, this is 2mm Bleed. Please refer to the product guideline you are designing for, as bleed values can vary.
Select CMYK for the colour mode and Raster Effects High (300ppi).
White Printing
White ink printing is used when printing onto non-white paper/material. Examples may include printing onto coloured paper or transparent vinyl. White priting can also be used to add a backing layer to help images retain vibrancy when printing onto a transparent sheet. See the example below of printing without white ink and with white ink.
Non-White Printing

White Printing
Image printed with a white ink layer
As you can see from these examples, the white layer of ink allows the colours of the design to appear more vivid and blocks any light coming through from the back.
In the case of printing onto coloured paper we can print only white or a combination of a white base layer and then an additional full colour print on top of this. Here below is an exmaple of white printing onto coloured paper, full colour printing onto coloured paper with the white base layer, and full colour printing onto coloured paper (without the white base layer).
Printed with white layer only onto coloured card.

We strongly recommend to use a white base layer when printing colour onto coloured paper. Choose the printing method which best suits your design/project. If you are unsure don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team who can talk you through the best solutions to best suit your requirements.
Creating Your File To Print White Ink
White ink can only be printed if you make a ‘White’ Layer in your artwork, using Adobe Illustrator or Indesign only. To do this; create a new layer in Illustrator or Indesign and name it ‘White’. In this layer, use a 100% Black stroke/fill colour to create your design. Everything in black will be printed in white ink. We know this may sound confusing to use a black colour for white printing, but it’s the simplest way for our printing machines to determine which areas require white ink.
Remember to extend any white printing beyond the outside of the bleed line if you want your design to run off the sheet.
Below this white layer, you can place any other special layers, (eg. Creasing, Scodix, Lasercut, Foil Emboss, etc.). Place your ‘Printing’ layer below any special layers. In this ‘Printing’ layer, you can place all text and images that will be printed in full-colour ink.
When your design is ready to be exported to PDF, It is essential to export using the below settings.
Punching Guideline
Punching is a print finish that simply punches a hole into a flat printed card sheet. For example, swing tags for gifts or clothing. A string can then be threaded through the hole later.
Punching can only be created if you make a ‘Punch’ Layer in your artwork, using Adobe Illustrator or Indesign only.
To do this; create a new layer in Illustrator or Indesign and name it ‘Punch’. In this layer, use a 100% Black stroke colour to create a circle where you want the hole to be punched. The circle must be the same size as the available holes with punching.
Remeber to select the same size hole as your design when placing your order.
Below this punch layer, you can place any other special layers, (eg. Creasing, Scodix, Lasercut, White printing, etc.). Place your ‘Printing’ layer below any special layers, here you can place all text and images that will be printed in full-colour ink.
When your design is ready to be exported to PDF, It is essential to export using the below settings.

Finishing Info
White Printing
White Printing
This white ink looks great when printed on coloured paper. Full CMYK can also be printed onto coloured paper, but first, a layer of white ink is applied to the surface, and then the CMYK is printed ontop.
Punching
Punching
A hole is punched in the paper. This can be used to thread a string through or a great way to house a button badge. It’s recommended to mark the desired hole at least 3mm inward from the edge of the final cutting lines.
Rounded Corners

Corners are kept square by default. Choose a circle cut for that added curve and avoid nasty paper cuts when handing your business card over!

Please note that we do not proof artwork or designs created by customers before production, and it's the customer's responsibility to check the print file thoroughly before sending to print. Please preview your designs, check and correct any mistakes before placing your order and payment.
