COLOUR MODE
Please make sure that your design is set in CMYK colour mode for printing.
CMYK is the colour scheme used for mixing colour in graphic designs,
while RGB is associated with electronic displays, such as TV screens, monitors, camera, etc.
IMAGE RESOLUTION
Images with resolution at 300DPI or higher is recommended.
Images created for websites generally have a resolution of 72 DPI (Dots Per Inch). This is much lower than what is required for good quality print.
If the artwork is supplied at a low resolution, the printed image may appear blurred, jagged and rough.
FONT OUTLINE
Please make sure the fonts are outlined if you are working on Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.
If the fonts are not outlined, the designated fonts may be replaced with other fonts or may be displayed incorrectly.
EMBED
If there are image files added to your design, please make sure they are embedded.
If images are not embedded properly, they would not be found or displayed properly.
FONT SIZE & STROKE
It is recommended to design with fonts of 4pt or more. Small characters may be crushed and difficult to read.
Please design and create a line thickness of 0.25pt or more. Thin lines or small designs may not be visible once printed on sticker.
CUTTING MOVEMENT
Cutting movement of 1 to 2mm will not be subject to defects due to mechanical tolerances. Please consider carefully before designing.
Design with border >>> The misalignment becomes more obvious.
Design without border >>> The misalignment is less obvious without the uneven border. [Recommended]
