Resolution:
All file formats must have a minimum of 350 dpi (dot per inch)
resolution at 100% of the final print size.
Images designed for the web typically cannot be used for
printing as they have a low screen resolution of 72 dpi. Print
images need to be created at 350 dpi or there will be a
substantial drop in the image quality.
e.g. 3.5"x 2" Business Card resolution: 350 dpi (1260 pixels x
735 pixels)
e.g. 6"x 4" Postcard resolution: 350 dpi (2135 pixels x 1435
pixels)

Bleed:
For business cards and postcards, please build your print-ready

e.g. 6"x 4" postcards with bleed is 6.1"x 4.1"
Please design your files on our templates to
ensure proper bleed.
