Before you send artwork

The short version.

Use our templates

Always set up your artwork using the Z-CARD supplied template for your chosen format.

Supply high-res

300dpi minimum. Press-ready PDFs, or packaged InDesign, Illustrator or Photoshop files.

Mind the fold lines

Keep essential content and logos clear of the fold lines and at least 4mm from any insert or cover trim.

Cover positioning

Don't move the cover from its template position. Recommended artwork at least 4mm from the folding lines.

Bleed & borders

Add the required bleed around the edge of insert and cover. Avoid borders that need perfect trim.

Colour & finish

CMYK for full colour, PMS or spot colour for brand-critical marks. Flag any special finishes early.
