Question
What design issues commonly prevent files from being approved for printing?
Answer
A few common file problems can block a print file from approval. Most involve artwork that runs off the print area or does not match the ordered quantity.
- Content extends beyond the intended print area and gets cut off.
- Borders or design elements are not clearly inside the print area versus the white margin.
- The number of design sets does not match the quantity ordered.
- Missing bleed or low-resolution images.
Fixing these before you submit saves a round of corrections.
