Prepress Services

Prepress, or Pre-Production, is a process where we prepare your artwork files for production, making sure they meet the standards for top-quality printing and create colour profiles within our colour management software so you get consistency every time you order!

Supplying your own artwork?

Check out our helpful guide to make sure the files you’re supplying are print ready!

We can advise you if digital files are not suitable and, in most cases, we can make any required technical changes to them so they are suitable for the printing process.

For all amendments to artwork files we charge a small fee depending on the complexity of the work required. These changes can include:

• Recreation of the artwork if the file isn’t compliant with our artwork checks.
• Creation of custom cutters, white layers, foil layers, and varnish layers on artwork when not supplied.
• Editing any text, colour or elements within an existing design.

Check out our pricing guide for making amendments to your supplied files.

Need an artwork template?

We can generate a free cutter template as a guide for your artwork, including the cutline, artwork safe area, and bleed. Just let us know the size or range number you are looking to order.

How’s this work?

An artwork proof in the form of a PDF file will be emailed to you so you can proofread the artwork content and confirm that the label specifications are all correct and meet your expectations. Once you have approved the PDF proof, our Customer Service Support team will process your order to the factory.
