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)

Yes, I would highly recommend Chilliprinting, quality and customer satisfaction is one of the best I've seen.

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

Quick production and shipping time and always fantastic quality!

Chill Printing review services did an excellent job of making sure the alternating color panels on a 7 fold accordion brochure folded exactly on the color edges. The final product was excellent and the pricing was remarkable.

Great prices, great quality and great customer service. THANK YOU!

I like the ease of placing an order. Straightforward and uncomplicated process. Quick turn on quality prints with fast shipping, can't be beat!

I just came across Chilli Printing after needing a print job with quick turnaround. I was hesitant but decided to give it a chance. I am so glad I did! The price, quality and turn-around time were everything I was looking for. You have a new customer in me.

Great quality, high-speed processing, and packing are perfect.

Great customer support, duplicate button so you don't have to continually enter the same specs in and a reorder button. Easy website to use and product is nice.

ChilliPrinting has remained reliable and prices fair during a turbulent time. I am a loyal ChilliPrinting customer!

Yet again, a great process all around. Easy ordering, fast service, and a great finished product. Hard to find fault...ok, it's not free...but it is still the best price around.

Great customer service! Chili contacted us by email to check an instruction detail that was unclear. Our posters arrived early in perfect condition.

The print and turnaround time were both great and as advertised. Superior and top notch service and communication throughout the whole process..

I have had trouble up loading files but overall very happy so far with all the projects I’ve done

Great quality at a good value!

QUICK TURN AROUND, GREAT PRODUCT AND SERVICE

Highly recommend! We were looking for a new printing company and couldn't have been happier with results. Initial communications were prompt and helpful, pricing was good, delivery was earlier than expected, the items packed thoughtfully with great care and the finished product looked great! 5 stars!

Very happy with how my booklets turned out. Will be placing another order soon. Arrived in a timely fashion.

Very quick turnaround time and excellent email communication. The quality of the printing is better than other vendors we’ve tried.

As always, prompt and efficient service from Chilli. Our posters are top-quality and beautifully printed. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Best customer support ever. I have had so much help for a lot of personal difficulties I was having with the posters I was ordering. They are really a great company with great products!

*** 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!

Great price, terrific quality, fast shipping
