What is a print-ready file?2024-09-04T14:48:32+08:00

A print-ready file is essential to every Smartpress order submitted for online printing. In short, it’s a PDF with high resolution images in the CMYK color space with the appropriate bleed:

  • All of your images should be high resolution. We recommend images are:
    • 300 PPI for small format projects like booklets, cards or brochures.
    • 150 PPI for large format projects like custom signs and banners.
  • Use CMYK colors for the most accurate comparison between what you see on your screen and what is produced with the printing press.
  • Your design files must have the appropriate bleed so that any variances in production don’t affect your print. Most printers have an 1mm variance in case the machines drift slightly in any direction. Because of this, your finished size should be expanded or contract by 1mm.
What artwork file do you need?2025-09-29T13:42:35+08:00

For the best print, supply Illustration or Print Ready PDF files at 300 dpi, CMYK, with a 3mm bleed. Don’t worry if you’re unsure — our team checks every file before printing. View artwork guide ➝
