Question
What file formats are accepted for greeting cards?
Answer
Most print-ready design files are accepted for greeting cards, with PDF being the safest choice because it locks in your fonts, colors, and resolution. Commonly accepted formats include PDF, AI, PSD, and JPEG.
Whichever format you use, set your file up like this:
- Resolution: 300 DPI
- Color mode: CMYK
- Bleed: 0.125 inch on all sides
Building the file to these specs helps your card print sharp and edge-to-edge, with no white slivers after trimming.
