Best file types:

- PDF or SVG (vector files stay sharp at any size)
- PNG with a transparent background
- High-resolution JPEG

Tips for a clean print:

- Supply artwork at the size you want it printed, ideally 300 dpi. The designer shows a quality check as you size your design.
- Use a transparent background unless the background is part of the design.
- Avoid screenshots and heavily compressed images – they can print blurry.

Every file is double-checked by a real person before we print. If something won't print well, we'll email you first. If your file needs cleaning up or redrawing, we'll tell you about any extra charge before we start.
