Question

How do I fix file centering and text cutoff issues on my printed bookmarks or cards?

Answer

Centering and cut-off problems usually come from artwork placed too close to the trim edge, or a file that does not match the product template. The fix is to pull key content inward and rebuild to the correct dimensions.

  • Keep all important text and images inside the safe area, away from the trim edge.
  • Match your document size to the product specs, including bleed.
  • Center your design within the template rather than against the canvas edge.
  • If you are unsure what is wrong, send the proof to support to diagnose the specific file issue.
