Artwork Specifications

If you will be mailing your artwork:
For logos and artwork provide large, clean art to insure the highest quality plastic card. We scan images/photographs sent by mail up to 8.5" wide X 11" high.

If you are scanning your artwork yourself and sending a digital copy by email:
Images should be scanned at 600 dpi or greater at a minimum size of 3.6" wide X 2.1" high and saved in CMYK format as high-quality .psd, .jpg, .jpeg, .cdr, .ai, .pdf

If submitting a complete pre-produced card layout via the web, your design must meet these guidelines:

We use the Windows® operating system. Sorry, we can not accept Macintosh® fonts (use common fonts or opentype).

The layout should be sized to 3.6" wide X 2.1" high for business cards and 3.475" wide X 2.225" High for Credit(Gift or Loyalty Cards) size X 300 dpi with all text within a 3/16" border to allow for radioed cropping. Please see our Photoshop® design template for these specifics. For best results, sending us your original "layered" file is recommended. However a "flattened" image should be provided at 300 dpi or greater and saved in CMYK format as a high-quality .psd, .jpg, .jpeg, .cdr, .ai, .pdf

Due to cutting variances, card designs with a framed border are not recommended. A possible slight shift in cutting will cause the printed frame border to appear off center.
