Images need to have a minimum resolution of 300dpi. If artwork is generated at a lower resolution, then the quality of the final printed job will be affected.

The toners we use to print on clear materials are slightly transparent, this means that for the parts that you require to be opaque or to add full colour images we have to create a white base layer on the artwork behind the colour or image, this is achieved by creating a separate layer on your artwork named “white” and anywhere our press finds this colour it will print white toner (beneath the CMYK artwork, beneath images or on it's own).

We can set up your artwork in our design studio, please describe which areas you require to be white or opaque in the notes box on the upload artwork page.

Please be aware that if additional set up is required by our design studio this may delay turnaround time.

The way we create metallic colours is by using a silver substrate and applying a thin layer of CMYK toner to create the metallic colour required, when ordering please describe the colour required (or give the metallic swatch code from our color logic sheet which is included in all sample packs and can be ordered here FREE of charge) in the notes box at the upload artwork stage.

The parts that you do not require metallic we have to create a white base layer on the artwork, this is achieved by creating a separate layer on your artwork, named “white” and anywhere our press finds this colour it will print white toner beneath the CMYK artwork.

Any white parts on your design that are not named “white” will be printed in a silver metallic.

We can set up your white base for you here in our design studio, please describe which areas you do not require metallic in the notes box on the upload artwork page. 

Please be aware that if additional set up is required by our design studio this may delay turnaround time.

Think about the appearance you are trying to achieve for your label, some materials may darken or lighten the appearance of your artwork once printed.

The different finishes may also affect the way your labels appear, Matt effects will make the colours look a little dull or faded and a gloss finish might make them appear brighter.
