Size, Lines & Safe Area

To ensure good production results:

  • Prepare artwork at 1:1 scale in mm or cm (or clearly state the scale if reduced)

  • Recommended minimum line thickness:

    • Print: 0.2–0.3 mm

    • Engraving: 0.15–0.2 mm

  • Keep important content (logos, text) at least 3–5 mm inside the finished edge or drilled holes

If you are unsure about legibility at a given size, we can review and advise.

Colour & Text

Colour:

  • Use CMYK for print-oriented artwork

  • Provide Pantone codes when available

  • If your design was created in RGB, share both RGB and CMYK values as a reference

Text & fonts:

  • Convert all text to outlines before sending final files

  • If you cannot outline text, include the font files in a separate folder

  • Avoid very thin fonts for small text or engraved details

Layers, Cut Lines & Effects

To help us understand how to produce each part of your design:

  • Use separate layers or clearly labelled colours for:

    • Cut lines

    • Engrave areas

    • Print areas

  • Mark any transparent / knock-out areas (where the material should show through)

  • If your design uses gradients or transparency, consider a sample before full production, as appearance can vary with material and lighting

We will confirm exact layer or colour conventions when we share templates with you.
