Question
What file specifications do I need to follow when uploading my design?
Answer
When you upload a design, keep everything important inside the red guideline shown in the preview. That line marks the safe print area and the trim boundary. Anything past it can be cut off.
- Fit key content (text, logos, faces) within the red safe line.
- Let backgrounds extend to the outer edge to fill the bleed.
- Anything outside the safe line risks being trimmed during cutting.
- Review the proof closely before submitting to confirm nothing critical falls in the cut zone.
