Question

What are the file requirements for sequential numbering on printed products?

Answer

Sequential numbering works best from a clean vector file with the numbering spelled out precisely, so the press knows exactly what to print and where. Give the details up front to avoid a back-and-forth during review.

RequirementDetail
File formatVector, for example Adobe Illustrator
Numbering rangeExact start and end, for example 0001 to 1000
FontTypeface and size specified
PlacementWhere each number sits on the piece
  • Do not alter or remove any existing printed elements in the numbered areas.
  • Before production, 4OVER4 can send a sample for your approval so you can confirm the numbering is accurate.
