BLEEDS
All file must have bleed. In other words, if you are designing the files, graphics, text or borders shouldn't be placed too near to the cut line. It must be at least 3mm from the edge. For instance, your actual size for your postcards is 140mm x 100mm. The bleed should have 145mm x 105mm on your artwork. All graphics, text or borders should be place inside the safe zone.

SAFE ZONE
Graphics, Text or borders should be placed inside the safe zone. If the objects are placed too close to the Actual Size Area, it may be easily cut off. It must be at least 5mm from the edge of the actual size. |

COLORS
All files must be submitted in CMYK Mode. If you are submitting RGB mode files, there will be color difference between RGB and CMYK.
If your files are submitted using any other colormode, such as RGB or Pantone code, we will convert the files to CMYK mode. The result of the colors will be varied
Bare in mind that the colors you see in your PC doesn't mean to be the color of the final printing. Every PCs view colors diffrerently. Different printing will produce different result. Color displayed on your computer monitor is created by RGB. Printed colors are created from CMYK.
