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 my go-to for posters. I love their quality and fast turnaround time. Even though ground shipping is slower right now, I can rely on 3-day shipping to receive my poster orders in good time.

I have ordered several times from Chilli Printing. Easy ordering and fast delivery. Top-notch service. Thank You!

ChilliPrinting is top-notch. Ordering is easy and shipping is fast. Thank you for another successful order.

The best printing company I have ever worked with. A four year repeat customer. Their quality is unmatched.

Printed and shipped fast as lightning!

Second order of posters—great product again. Timely and unbeatable price—well packed/shipped. Looking now at the 80 lb text gloss for printing/use as possible wrapping paper—maybe another product line you might promote/carry (might offer 70 lb paper if you do).

Chilliprinting always does a good job with printing the posters for me. I appreciate the quick, quality service they provide at affordable prices.

I ordered a single large poster and it looked great I appreciated that they also sent an extra print. I will definitely return for future printing needs.

Super satisfied with my posters from ChilliPrinting! I love that neutral shipping labels is an option as well, since I ship posters directly to my clients.

Great service and quick turnaround. Highly recommended!

Improve Chilli's services? Not possible! Every single aspect of the process works great....from getting online quotes, getting assistance from real employees, simple yet technical proofing process, option for proofing assistance, price, turnaround, delivery...EVERYTHING at Chilli works perfect! Keep on Chilling!!!

Great printing quality. Received my order quickly

Good quality and fast service. Would recommend

ChiliPrinting is fantastic! They printed just what we wanted, at a reasonable price and it was SO FAST! We've used them muliple times for a folded poster and will do a reprint when we need more!

I love being able to choose my printing and shipping speeds. I am able to tell my clients exactly when their items will arrive. ChilliPrinting always delivers!

Incredible service as always.

Without a doubt, I will be ordering my posters, CD covers, etc. from Chiliprinting. I haven't been disappointed yet! Great color, excellent customer service, and great results.

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.

High quality printing and fast customer service replies!

Chilli has hit my deadlines 100% of the time...for more than 5 years! Highly recommend!

printed and shipped quickly to customer. Everything always turns out great!

The posters we ordered were delivered when they said they wiuld be and were printed on a nice heavy stuck. The print quality was excellent. And the price was the best of any i found amongst wholesale printers online.

I ordered several hundred posters. They were completed ahead of schedule, looked great, and were at an excellent price. One box and its contents got damaged during shipping and ChilliPrinting sent me replacements within a few days. I couldn't ask for anything more. ChilliPrinting rules!

Consistently beyond expectations. Nothing else seems to put my experience with ChilliPrinting into words. Thank You yet again!!!
