Pre-press

The precision and expertise of our Pre-Press team underpins the colour accuracy and quality print of your labels. Our graphic designers assist with colour and die recommendations, as well as label design and layout, always working closely with our certified printers to ensure your labels bring your brand to life.

Artwork Guidelines

Artwork guidelines for custom labels include the appropriate fonts, logo, art, image files, barcodes, correct platform, bleed applications, colours and delivery to achieve the highest printing standards.

Fonts

Please supply any fonts used in your job.

Note: Files with fonts 'converted to paths' or 'outlined' cannot be easily edited, therefore if changes are required additional charges may be incurred

Logo Files

For optimum quality, all vector (line art) logos must be supplied in their original file format, ie. EPS or Adobe Illustrator. Logos supplied as JPEGs (made up of dots) will not produce a good result when printed.

Art Files

EPS or PDF formats are acceptable. Please include all support or linked files and specify any PMS colours required. If your art is created in Photoshop please supply the layered file (.psd), i.e. keeping image and type layers seperate.

Image Files

Please supply all images as separate files (even if they are embedded in the file we still require them). Images should be supplied at 300dpi, and will be printed CMYK unless PMS Duotone / Monotone are specified in the file.

Barcodes

Please submit barcode numbers with your artwork. We will reproduce your barcode using our software. Barcodes will be printed at 85-100% magnification to GS1 guideline specifications.
