Size and Bleed ▼
Size is the cornerstone of the finished product.
When designing, the canvas must be set strictly according to the actual size of the printed product, and don’t forget to reserve bleed space.
Bleed is usually set to about 5mm, which can ensure that during the cutting process, the content of the picture will not have white edges due to inaccurate edge cutting, making the edges of the finished product more complete and beautiful.
Resolution and color mode ▼
Resolution is about the clarity of an image.
For printed products, the resolution is generally required to be no less than 300dpi. The naked eye cannot see the screen lines and dots, and the image details can be clearly presented without blurring or pixelation.
The color mode must be CMYK, which can accurately restore the color effect during the printing process and avoid the color of the finished product being very different from the design draft due to the wrong color mode.
Word Processing ▼
Text plays an important role in design.
First, make sure the text is correct. Typos, grammatical errors, and other issues need to be carefully proofread.
Secondly, for small-sized text, pay attention to its readability and avoid using overly complex, thin, or bold fonts.
In addition, when the design contains a large amount of text, reasonable typesetting is also crucial. Adjusting the line spacing and character spacing can make the text more comfortable to read.
Images & Graphics ▼
Image clarity and copyright are key.
Using high-resolution images can ensure the texture of the image when printing.
At the same time, make sure that the images used have legal copyright to avoid infringement disputes.
For graphic elements, whether vector or bitmap, ensure that the edges are smooth and clear after enlarging or reducing, without jagged edges.
File Format & Delivery ▼
Common printing design finalization formats include: PDF, AI, etc.
The PDF format has strong compatibility and can better preserve the text, images and layout information in the design.
When delivering the file, detailed instructions such as printing materials and process requirements must be attached so that the printing factory can accurately understand the design intent.
Printing design finalization is a rigorous and meticulous work, and every detail may affect the quality of the final product. I hope that the knowledge shared above can help you create more amazing and perfect works on the road of printing design. As long as you provide us with the complete manuscript, Hongze Blossom will be able to accurately quote and calculate the cost for you, saving you unnecessary waste. Let us work together to carefully carve out each final draft and let creativity shine in the world of printing!
