How to prevent the template guidelines from being printed on your product

When working on our template to create your design, please make sure to remove all guidelines before saving your file as a PDF or before rasterising its content.

If you do not remove the guidelines from the template, they will be printed over your design, resulting in an undesired outcome.

Here is how your file (img1) and the printed product (img2) would appear if the template guidelines were not removed or if they were rasterised along with the design:

Incorrect tri-fold brochure layout with visible template guidelines, fold lines, and numbered panel markers still present on the design.Incorrect tri-fold brochure layout with visible template guidelines and fold lines that would print on the final product, marked with a red X. 
 

Below, you can see how your file should appear once the template guide lines have been removed:

Correct tri-fold brochure layout for "sooo fresh" cosmetics catalogue with template guidelines removed, showing clean fold lines and proper panel alignment.
Correct example of a tri-fold brochure with template guidelines removed, showing clean panels with text and images properly aligned within safe zones. 

Before saving your file, remember to remove all the guidelines included in the template (you can also delete the green line).

If you still have any doubt please contact us: we'll be happy to help you!
