Templates

Overview

We have created templates for each of our print products to help speed your job through production by ensuring that it conforms to our specs. Templates are available on the print product page for each product in both "portrait" (

) and "landscape" (

) orientations. Template files are compressed to facilitate downloading. Macintosh users will need Stuffit® , and Windows users will need WinZip® in order to uncompress template files.

You can get templates for all of our print products on our Templates Page.

Using Templates

There are three sets of marks in our templates.

1. Bleed Marks (Magenta) indicate the edge of the bleed area to which the artwork in your file should extend.

2. Crop Marks (Black) indicate where your art will be trimmed after it is printed.

3. Safe Marks (Cyan) indicate the recommended margin for type, logos, etc., so that these graphic elements do not appear too close to the edge of your trimmed artwork. For more on Crops and Bleeds, see Crop Marks and Bleeds
