What is a Professional File Check?

For a small fee, an expert member of our technical team will manually review your artwork before it goes to print so you can press 'go' with complete confidence. If you've ordered multiple products, you can choose to add a Professional File Check to individual jobs or your entire order. We'll check your file for common print setup issues and, where possible, fix them before production. If we find anything that needs your attention, we'll contact you and place your order on hold until you've updated and re-uploaded your artwork. We'll check things like: Image resolution for print quality Bleed and safe areas Page count and page order on folded products Corrupt, blank or password-protected files Templates left on artwork Folds, cut lines, drill holes and binding areas (where applicable) Foil alignment and minimum line widths (where applicable) Personalisation files and version quantities (where applicable) A Professional File Check doesn't include: Spelling, grammar or proofreading Design, layout or text sizing advice Colour accuracy or colour mode checks (RGB/CMYK) QR code testing Calendar date checks Post-print quality inspection beyond our standard production processes See a full list of what's included here . Adding a Professional File Check won't delay your estimated delivery date, unless we need you to amend and re-upload your artwork after we've reviewed it. To upgrade to a Professional File Check, simply select the option when you upload your artwork. We'll take care of the rest and let you know if we spot anything that needs your attention before your job goes to print.

What is Business Stationery?

Business stationery is all about the professionally designed materials that showcase your company’s brand and communication style. Think Letterheads, Compliment Slips, Presentation Folders, Certificates, and Desk Pads. These items don’t just look great, they help elevate your professionalism while creating a seamless and cohesive brand experience.

Can I customise my Business Stationery?

Yes! All of our business stationery items can be fully customised to align with your brand. You can incorporate your logo, brand colours, and any specific designs or layouts. We offer print ready downloadable templates for you to create your artwork.

What paper is best for writing on?

If you're looking for a paper that's perfect for writing, our Uncoated range is the top choice. It’s smooth, absorbent, and ensures pens glide effortlessly across the surface. For something a bit more textured and unique, we also recommend options like Tintoretto Gesso or Acquerello, which add a touch of personality to your business stationery.

A file copy is an additional print from your order, ideal for personal reference, record-keeping, or simply having a backup of your work. It’s a useful tool for reviewing your materials either before sending the main batch to clients or after they’ve received it, ensuring everything is exactly as it should be. Available on selected products like Letterheads and Compliment Slips, the file copy provides flexibility and peace of mind. You can have it shipped to any address of your choice, whether it’s your home, office, or a colleague’s location, for a small additional fee. Keep in mind that the file copy is taken from the total order quantity—so if you place an order for 100 prints and select a file copy, you’ll receive 99 prints at your main address and 1 print at the file copy address. This service is perfect for staying organised and keeping a personal archive of your important printed materials.

What should I know before preparing artwork for print?

Here are the 7 key things you need to know before preparing your artwork to be printed with us:

1. We provide downloadable templates:

On most of our product pages, you can find free downloadable templates to help you set up your artwork for print. They’re available in AI, IDML and PDF formats to suit the design software you’re working in. Our downloadable templates include key information on creating artwork as well as instructions on how to save out your print-ready PDF.

2. You need to include bleed:

Bleed is an area of print outside the document that must be added to your artwork before it’s sent off for print. By adding the all-important bleed (a minimum of 3mm on all edges), there’ll be no risk of white space left on your document and it'll be trimmed correctly without cutting into any design. Some products require a different amount of bleed, so be sure to check our downloadable templates to find out the correct amount.

3. Keep in mind the safe area:

The safe area is the space inside where your print will be trimmed. Keeping any important parts of your design away from this area will make sure that they aren’t accidentally trimmed off due to the natural movement while your print gets finished. Our downloadable templates will indicate the recommended amount of safe area for your print.

4. The difference between RGB and CMYK:

RGB is the colour gamut used to display images on a computer screen, and stands for Red, Green and Blue. CMYK is the colour gamut used for conventional printing, and stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. Unless you’re printing Gicée Fine Art Prints, Photographic Prints or Mugs, please set up your artwork in CMYK.

5. Embed your fonts:

If you don’t embed fonts and your document is opened on another computer system that doesn’t have access to the original fonts, different fonts will be substituted instead. This could really affect the look of your finished print. Embedding fonts into your original design will stop them from changing. Find out how to embed your fonts here.

6. Check your image resolution:

For the best print results, all artwork files should be at least 300dpi (dots per inch) when saved at the actual size they will appear in your design. This ensures that your final printed project is sharp and clear, not blurry or pixelated.

7. How to export a PDF:

Exporting your design into a print-ready PDF is easy. We’ve created some handy video guides which will take you through the process which you can find here.

Find lots more artwork tips here, including if you’re printing any special finishes such as foiling. For products with multiple pages, such as Brochures or Booklets, explore our book printing guide here.
