We provide you here with some tips on uploading your file to make the process as clear and easy as possible. Depending on the product you've chosen to print, these specifications may vary:
File format
Single or multi-page file
FILE FORMAT:
We highly recommend uploading all your files in PDF format. Please note that only simple products (with no spot colours requested and front or front and back printing only) support also the upload of JPG, JPEG, or PNG files
By using our free Designer, you'll be able to upload files in JPG, PNG, GIF, BMP and PDF formats to create your graphics online
NUMBER OF PAGES:
In case of front only printing, upload a single page file (PDF, JPG, JPEG, or PNG format)
For different front and back or inside and outside printing, you can choose to upload a single two-page file (PDF) or two separate files
Even for most complex displays (such as Feather flags or some POS Displays), you will be asked to upload a multiple page file: please always use the template for these products or create your graphichs through Designer

For books and magazines, we highly suggest to create a single PDF file with both the cover and inside pages: find the cover already set with the spine, if needed, at the beginning of the template provided followed by the internal pages.
Alternatively, you can create two separate files to upload within the same job: one for the cover and one for the inside pages. In this case, the cover file must include all required sides and be laid out either as a spread or as single pages, depending on the selected binding type.
Remember that for perfect-bound and sewn books, the cover must always be laid out flat; as a result, the number of pages in the template (and therefore in your PDF file) will always be fewer than the total number of pages indicated in the quote

If you decide to upload multiple files, please note that:
For front and back printing: the first one refers to the front and the second one to the back
For inside and outside printing: the first one refers to the outside and the second one to the inside
For books and magazines: the first one refers the cover and the second one the internal pages
If you're using Designer to create graphics for front and back/inside and outside printing, you need to insert your contents both in table 1 (front/outside) and table 2 (back/inside) to continue and proceed with the order
We always recommend to download the template (from the product page or from your Upload area) or to contact us if you still have any doubts about the file to upload: we'll be happy to help you!
