Question

What file formats does 4OVER4 accept for postcard printing?

Answer

4OVER4 prints postcards from print-ready PDF files, which lock your fonts, colors, and layout exactly as designed so nothing reflows on press. If your artwork lives in another program, export or flatten it to PDF first, or contact support to confirm the file will work before you order.

  • Preferred format: a single flattened, print-ready PDF
  • Build the document at your final postcard size plus 1/8" (0.125") bleed on every side
  • Use CMYK color and embed or outline all fonts
  • Keep photos and raster images at 300 DPI so they print sharp
  • Have a Word doc, JPG, or PSD? Convert it to PDF, or ask support before ordering
