Question

What file setup requirements do I need to meet for my order?

Answer

Print files are easiest to process when each page is a single, correctly ordered page with bleed added.

  • Submit single pages, one per file page, in reading order (reader pagination) so nothing lands out of sequence.
  • Do not send printer spreads or two-up layouts unless the product asks for them.
  • Add bleed to every page, not just the first.
  • Flatten transparencies and embed or outline fonts before exporting.

Setting files up this way keeps pages in the right order and prevents surprises at trim.
