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, ask your printer to review the proof and diagnose the specific file issue.
