The specs, in full
Same content as the PDF, rendered on this page so it's readable at a glance and easy to link to.
Document
- •Build at final print size, in inches.
- •Illustrator over 227"? Author at 10% or 25% and note the scale.
- •CMYK if your app supports it; RGB accepted (we convert).
Bleed & margins
- •0.125" bleed on all sides if art runs to the edge.
- •Keep text and logos 0.25" inside the trim (safe area).
- •No crop or trim marks — cutting is CNC-driven from file geometry.
Resolution
- •Large format: 100–150 DPI at final size is sharp.
- •Small pieces (stickers, decals): 300 DPI at final size.
- •Vector wherever possible — logos, type, line art.
Type & cut lines
- •Outline all fonts before export (Illustrator: Select All → Type → Create Outlines).
- •Custom contour cut? Include the cut path as a separate vector layer and note it.
Export
- •PDF preferred — "High Quality Print" or "PDF/X-4" preset.
- •Include bleed. No marks. Max 250MB.
- •PNG/JPG fallback: export at final size, 100–150 DPI, sRGB.
