File Specifications

Please scroll down to download one of our free templates.

Bleed Format

Please ensure your file has the following dimensions:

3.70'' x 2.20''

After printing we will trim off a 0.10'' bleed on each side. Any background elements or color should reach into this bleed area and last till the very edge of the file. Text and other important graphic elements should keep a safety distance to the inside.

Trim Format (Final Product Format)

Your product will be delivered with the following dimensions:

3.5'' x 2''

File Dimensions

Please first choose a size from the calculator to see the exact file dimensions.

Bleed 0.1'' (1/10'')

This margin is essential to compensate trimming tolerances. The bleed will usually be trimmed off completely. Please ensure that background images and any bleed objects, which are supposed to reach to the edge of your page, extend into this margin to avoid thin white edges after trimming.

Safety Area 0.08'' (1/12'')

Additionally, please ensure that text and other important graphic elements are positioned at least 0.08'' away from the bleed to the inside. In most cases it doesn't look aesthetically if text stucks too closed to the edge.

Resolution

We print with a 177lpi screen, which provides a resolution of 354 dpi. In order to obtain best results, your file should have a resolution of at least 300 dpi (dots per inch). Files for large formats, like for instance posters, may go below this threshold, however, in no case your resolution should be less than 150 dpi.

Color settings

CMYK is the standard color mode for full color offset printing. Thus, please use the CMYK color mode when creating your file. If, however, we receive files with any different color setting, our system will automatically convert them to CMYK. This may result in slight color deviations which will not be accepted as complaints since we cannot know the original color you had in mind. To avoid color issues, please use our color profile available further down this page.

Inking

The total of the percent values of the four color channels Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black must not exceed 300%. If it does, it will cause an above-average ink application and may not dry properly. As a consequence your printed products may stick together and tear on separation.
For black or gray color please only use the K channel (K = key = black). If your fonts are using three or more color channels, shadows may appear on the prints making the text difficult to read.
To obtain a deep saturated black of strokes and fillings, 40% Cyan and 100% Black are adequate (40/0/0/100). Alternatively you may also use the values 30/30/30/100.

Fonts

For offset printing, please always use Postscript fonts. In rare cases TrueType fonts may cause issues with many professional printing workflows. If TrueType fonts are unavoidable they should be converted to outlines, paths or curves (this function may have different names according to the used software).

File Formats

We prefer multipage PDF files, alternatively you may send us EPS, JPEG or TIFF files. Adobe Photoshop users should always save their files as JPEG or TIFF. If a Photoshop PDF is required, please use Acrobat Distiller to create the PDF (you may download our Acrobat JobOptions further down this page). Please never save a PDF directly from Photoshop.

Page Order

In your PDF file, the first page should be the front and the second page the back. Important for folded double sided products: The first page of your PDF must always include the front panel of your folded product (means the page which is supposed to be the front page after folding)

Really great quality and service. Highly recommend.

ChilliPrinting is fantastic to work with! I love the different options for production and shipping speeds—I can choose exactly what I need to fit my timeline and budget.

I've been using ChilliPrinting for my posters for years. I have rarely had an issue. They have great service, prices, and quality.

Quick production and shipping time and always fantastic quality!

Best in the business for posters!

Super easy the hardest part is making sure you have your artwork file ready. Proof was sent within an hour and shipping and tracking number within 48 hours. If your on a time schedule you can trust these guys. Quality was really nice.

Great quality, great turn around.

chilliprinting is awesome! Their customer support is top notch and responsive, the care for the client is apparent, and the product looks great!!!

ChilliPrinting makes ordering easy. I love that I can choose both production speed and shipping speed, to get my orders when I want for the price I want.

Price, service and poster print quality was excellent. Turned out a little dark and with some color shift, but I was warned this could happen as I submitted RBG files--only had PS Elements with no CMYK capabilities. I just bought Photoshop and I'll convert to CMYK, as well as upload the ICC info for the paper you're printing on. Hopefully the next poster will be even better.

The cards came out great. Good quality and good price. Plus, customer service was very helpful on the chat when I had questions about design / ordering.

Excellent service! Excellent product!

SUPER FAST shipping, beautiful ink colors, excellent craftsmanship, best price we could find. We'll very definitely be a return customer!

Chilliprinting always delivers. Top quality products for affordable prices. My customers always love when their posters arrive. Great job and thank you!!

The new website makes ordering even easier! As always my posters came on time & printed beautifully.

Print quality was excellent, and order arrived on time. We will be ordering again!

Very quick turnaround. The posters came in perfect condition and the matte paper was great. Will be ordering from here again soon!

*** is super efficient in all respects - - easy online ordering, quick turnaround, great prices. Best of all is ***, the service rep that has provided personal assistance on my last three orders. *** is very professional, always helpful, and quick to respond. Makes a big difference when there is that human touch behind online services!

Excellent price and fast service they really different from other printing services, the only issue no telephone number for questions

I've been getting my print work done with these guys for over 5 years. They are reliable, efficient, and cost effective!

I had a great experience on this order with ChilliPrinting customer service. I used the Live Chat to talk to a representative, and then later received a follow-up email about my order. Absolutely fantastic.

Ground shipping started to get slower than usual, and I'm glad to see ChilliPrinting updated their estimated arrival date calculator to reflect that. Very helpful!

Another project executed by Chilli that went smooth smooth smooth! Highly recommend Chilli....great staff support combined with latest technology makes for a great printing partner!

Booklets came out perfect, quality was very good, and the turnaround was perfect.

Knowledgeable and friendly staff -- excellent printing services -- Thank you!
