Inkstone Craft Printing

We hope that every customer can get high-quality prints by standardizing the artwork finalization guide and reducing the chance of errors.

Set the bleed

Color and images must extend beyond the edge of your artwork, to prevent unwanted white borders after trimming. 3mm bleed is recommended on all edges.
Create outlines for text

The text in the artwork must always be converted into graphics or outlines instead of remaining the original font type to avoid the problem of missing fonts.
Preferred file format

The common file formats for printing are: *.ai, *.psd, *.jpg, *.pdf, *.cdr, etc. Files from Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are not suitable for printing.
Embed the graphic file

Remember to embed or rasterize the linked graphic file before sending us the artwork to make sure no file will be lost during printing.
About color ratio

Please notice that the minimum color ratio must not be less than 10%, and the "total" color ratio of the overlapping four colors must not be higher than 245%.
Image resolution

The image file in the artwork for printing generally needs a resolution at least 300dpi. 100dpi is accepted only for large image output.
