Portfolio Printing File Specifications
To ensure a seamless printing process and exceptional results, we have specific file requirements for portfolio printing projects:
Bleed refers to an extra margin around your document that extends beyond the final trimmed size of your book. Typically, a bleed of 0.125 inches (3mm) should be added to each side of your page layout. This ensures that no unprinted edges occur in the final product if the trimming shifts slightly.
The clarity of images in your coffee table book is paramount. For high quality printing, all images should have a resolution of at least 300 DPI (dots per inch). This high resolution ensures that your images appear crisp and detailed, rather than pixelated or blurry.
Color reproduction in printing is significantly different from that on a computer screen. For this reason, it's important to set your document's color mode to CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key/Black) instead of RGB (Red, Green, Blue).
We accept several file formats, but for the best results, PDF files are preferred. PDFs preserve the layout and content as intended without the risk of elements shifting or fonts being substituted, which can happen with other file types.
Other tips: 1. When providing files for a dust jacket, please consider the width of the spine to ensure proper alignment and a seamless fit.
2. If you artwork include other elements, such as pop up, foil stamping, spot uv, deboss, etc, it’s essential to provide separate designs for each interactive element. To make sure that our team can accurately reproduce and assemble these unique features during the production process.
