Question
What file format should I use for label artwork?
Answer
Upload a print-ready PDF at 300 DPI for the most reliable results. PDF locks your layout, fonts, and colors so the file prints the way you designed it. Other production formats work too, as long as the resolution and setup are correct.
- Best choice: print-ready PDF at 300 DPI
- Also accepted: AI, EPS, PSD, and high-resolution JPEG
- Include bleed: 0.125 inch past every trimmed edge
- Add trim marks: so the cut lines are unambiguous
- Use CMYK: for accurate on-press color
