# The color mode should be “CMYK” and the file size should be the original size (1:1). Generally, bleed and crop marks must be made.
# The artwork file should be created in vector format using specialized typesetting software like AI and CDR. Text should be converted to “outline”, and linked images must be provided with correct file names.
# Photoshop is mainly for image editing, not typesetting. Due to printing technology, raster images (like JPG, TIF, PSD, etc.) should not be used directly, as fine text or lines may not appear correctly.
# Direct printing using word processing software may affect the printing effect in different situations. If necessary, please convert to PDF format to minimize potential issues.
# If using pdf format files, please make sure the file meets printing standards before generating it.
# Supported printing file formats are compatible with both Mac and Windows, but using the Windows version is recommended.
# Each side of the submission should have a bleed area of 3mm and standard corner lines, while the content should ideally be at least 3mm away from the edges to avoid cutting issues. If the submitted file does not include bleed, the company may suggest resizing the final product dimensions based on actual conditions.
# It is not recommended to use system fonts like “細明字” (MingLiU) or “標楷體” (BiauKai), as they may cause white nodes at stroke intersections.
# To avoid line breaks, if using thin fonts, please set the color dots to 50% or above.
# Customers can choose to deliver files directly on a CD or via email (for files no larger than 5MB). For larger files, please use FTP. When uploading files, be aware that firewalls may affect the process; consider opening port 21. If the file size is too large, it is advisable to compress the file (ZIP or RAR for PC, SIT for Mac) before submission.
# If you need to retain submitted files, inform our customer service team; otherwise, the company generally will not retain them.
# Submitted materials must meet standard printing specifications. If you are unfamiliar with these requirements, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional or use the company’s design services.
# Individual processing may affect the content of the image. Please pay attention when designing and preparing the artwork.

# The color mode should be set to “CMYK,” and the document size should be at actual size (1:1) with a resolution of 100-150 dpi. Generally, no bleed is required.
# Please save the files directly as TIF, JPG, or EPS. Providing other formats may affect delivery time and incur additional costs.
# If providing vector files (ai, cdr) or bitmap files (jpg/tif), please convert text to outlines. Additional processing may be required (such as resizing or cropping), and for materials priced below HK$50/pcs, an extra HK$20/pcs handling fee will apply for each additional file. The production timeline will start only after confirming the artwork.
# If using PDF format, it should meet printing standards before generation.
# File formats are compatible with Mac & Windows, but Windows versions are recommended.
# Customers may deliver files via CD or email (if files are smaller than 5MB). For larger files, please use FTP. Note that uploading may be affected by company firewalls; try opening port 21. For large files, compress them (PC: Zip or RAR, Mac: sit) before submission.
# If you need to retain the files you provided, please inform our order processing staff; otherwise, we typically do not keep them.
# Submitted files must meet standard spray printing format requirements. If you are unfamiliar with this process, it is advisable to have a professional handle it or use our design services.
# Individual processing may affect the content of the image (e.g., drilling holes may intrude about 1 inch into the image). Please be mindful of this when designing the artwork.

# Due to the variations in printing methods and various objective factors, a color deviation of 5-10% during production is regarded as normal. If customers need specific color matching, please inform our customer service team before placing an order for further processing.
# Different types of paper, such as woodfree paper, conqueror paper, newsprint, and various specialty papers, may show significant color differences when printed. This is because of the characteristics of the ink and the fact that the inherent color of the paper is not pure white. If you have specific color requirements, please discuss them with our customer service team before placing your order for special arrangements.
# Colors displayed on screens (RGB) should not be relied upon; standard four-color process swatches should be used as a reference.
# Normal four-color printing files should not use Pantone colors. If Pantone color printing is required, please contact our customer service department separately.
# Since paper cannot withstand excessive ink coverage, it is not recommended to use 100% black (C, M, Y, K values each at 100%) in submitted materials. Generally, providing a single-color black is sufficient.
