Question

What file format should I use for Custom Letterhead printing?

Answer

PDF is the best format for custom letterhead because it preserves your fonts, colors, and layout without anything shifting between your computer and the press. It travels cleanly and prints as designed.

  • Color mode - build in CMYK, not RGB, so colors match the printed result
  • Resolution - 300 DPI at final size keeps logos and text crisp
  • Bleed - add 0.125" if any element runs to the edge of the sheet
  • Fonts - embed or outline them so nothing reflows

You can upload your finished PDF directly through the ordering process, which keeps setup simple even if design is not your day job.
