Product with predefined colours: how to create the file

We print our products using a variety of printing processes and technologies. Most of them are printed using CMYK colors, while others offer a predefined color selection. In these cases, you need to choose which color(s) you want to be printed during the product configuration:

  • For one printing color (e.g., plastic mailing bags, wrapping paper, and certain models of paper bags):
      • Select the printing color from the options available on the product page

      • If you have chosen one of the proposed colors, create your design using only black (C 0% - M 0% - Y 0% - K 100%): all the graphics in black will be printed with the color chosen during the product configuration

      • If you have selected a customized color (as can be done for wrapping paper, for instance), send us a vector file with one-color graphics in CMYK

         

  • For products in which one, two, or three different printing colors can be selected:
      • Select the color(s) from the options available on the product page

      • Find the colors available in the template provided

      • Create your artwork on the specific layer(s) you find already set in the template
      • Assign the color you want using the swatches panel colors (one color per layer)

  • For promotional items with one-color printing:
      • Find the colors available in the template provided

      • Use it to fill the graphic contents created

 Please download the instruction document to create a correct file and keep in mind:

  • The artwork must consist entirely of vector graphics
  • Gradients, reticulation, and transparent graphics cannot be used
  • It's important to follow the minimum printable size recommended for font and lines
  • In case of screen printing (tote bags, fabric pouches, packaging tapes), different colors must not come into contact.
