Question

How do I make sure my design files are set up correctly for velvet laminated printing?

Answer

Standard print prep applies, with one extra caution: very fine detail can soften under the laminate.

SettingRecommended
Color modeCMYK
Resolution300 DPI
Bleed0.125" on all sides
  • Avoid hairline text and lines under 1 pt, since the lamination can soften them.
  • Keep small type bold enough to stay legible.
  • Outline fonts before exporting.
  • Export a print-ready PDF.
