Question
What file format should I use for my booklet order?
Answer
Booklets have specific file requirements so the pages impose and bind correctly. Submit a print-quality PDF built to the specs below, and any RGB or Pantone color is converted to CMYK during processing.
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| File type | Print-quality PDF |
| Layout | Single pages, not spreads |
| Color mode | CMYK (RGB and Pantone converted to CMYK) |
| Bleed | 1/8" (0.125") on each side |
- Export every page as its own page so the booklet imposes correctly.
- Keep important text and images at least 1/8" inside the trim so they clear the cut.
