- File Formats: Ensure your artwork is submitted in a high-resolution file format, such as AI, PDF, or EPS. These vector formats allow for precise scaling and printing, maintaining the quality of your design.
- Color Mode and Profiles: Set your artwork color mode to CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) instead of RGB, as it better represents how colors will appear in print. Additionally, include any necessary color profiles for consistent results.
- Bleed and Safe Zone: Add a bleed area (typically 3-5mm) around your design to account for slight cutting variations. Keep important design elements within the safe zone to prevent them from being trimmed off.
- Resolution Requirements: Ensure all images and graphics in the design have a minimum resolution of 300 DPI (dots per inch) for crisp and clear printing results.
- Fonts and Text Outlining: Convert any text to outlines or embed fonts in your design file. This avoids font compatibility issues and ensures the text appears exactly as intended.

How To Set Up Design Files For Printed Shipping Boxes
Our Shipper boxes are printed on either a double sided white E and B-flute Corrugated Board or a brown E and B-flute Corrugated Board. They are are single walled and 1.8mm thick. E-flute board is commonly used for shipper and product packaging due to the very fine flute, slimness and is great for print reproduction.
Remember that the printed colours may change slightly due to the colour of the paper. White printing is not available on brown mailing boxes.
Artwork Specification:
Please download the templates for your specific product to assist in setting up your artwork file.
When submitting artwork, please send us two files: one with the template visible and overlaid on your artwork, and another with the template removed, displaying only your artwork. We use the first document to check your files are accurate and we will proof and print the second document.
- Supply your print-ready artwork in CMYK colour only.
- Include 10 mm of bleed on all sides, and that any full-bleed images cover the entire area surrounded by the bleed line
- Leave a minimum of 10 mm safe zone between the text and the trim lines.
- The final product may differ by up to 5mm from the original file submitted, please bear this tolerance in mind when creating your artwork.
- Images should be supplied at 300 dpi.
- To ensure the best results, think about how the box will look when assembled, ensuring all images are orientated correctly.
- Supply your artwork in PDF/X1a format without crop marks
