Resolution:
All file formats must have a minimum of 350 dpi (dot per inch) resolution at 100% of the final print size.
Images designed for the web typically cannot be used for printing as they have a low screen resolution of 72 dpi. Print images need to be created at 350 dpi or there will be a substantial drop in the image quality.
e.g. 3.5"x 2" Business Card resolution: 350 dpi (1260 pixels x 735 pixels)
e.g. 4"x 6" Postcard resolution: 350 dpi (2135 pixels x 1435 pixels)

Color Mode:
There is no price variation between full color layouts and grayscale/black ink layouts. All color artwork and/or images must be provided in CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) color mode.
All black & white artwork and/or images must be provided in grayscale color mode.

Bleed: (Color to the edge)
For business cards and postcards, please build your print-ready digital files by adding 0.1" bleed to each dimension (or 0.05" bleed on all four sides).
e.g. 3.5"x 2" business cards with bleed is 3.6"x 2.1"
e.g. 6"x 4" postcards with bleed is 6.1"x 4.1" 
This extra area will eventually be trimmed off in post production.
Please design your files on our to ensure proper bleed.

Accepted Files
.PDF files are the industry standard and produce a better result than jpg files. PDF files should be Acrobat version 5.1 or earlier. In addition you should “Remove Editing Capability” in the settings so that the fonts will be embedded.
