Question

How do I ensure proper placement of text and design elements on banners near grommets or edges?

Answer

For outdoor banners, keep text and key design elements clear of the edges and grommets, and check the proof before you approve it.

  • Keep important text, logos, and critical elements inside a safe margin, away from the trim edge
  • Grommets are set around the border, so avoid placing content where they land
  • Review the proof closely for anything that sits near a grommet or the trim edge
  • If an element sits too close, move it inward before you approve so it is not cut off or blocked by a grommet
