Question

What is a red line proof and why would I need one?

Answer

A red line proof is a marked-up mockup that shows exactly how your design will be positioned and sized on the finished product.

  • Confirms logo placement, alignment, and spacing before printing.
  • Verifies critical measurements so nothing important lands too close to the trim.
  • Especially useful for detailed or premium jobs where precise placement matters.
  • You can usually request one during the proofing stage of your order.
