Question

Do I need to adjust my design files for round corners?

Answer

Yes. Rounded corners trim away the outer edge, so your layout needs a little breathing room.

  • Keep text and logos at least 0.125" away from the trim on every side.
  • Extend background colors and images fully into the bleed so no white shows at the curve.
  • Use a template for your product size to see exactly where the corner cut falls.
  • Avoid borders near the edge, since a rounded cut makes uneven borders obvious.
