File Specifications
Please scroll down to download one of our free templates.
Bleed Format
Please ensure your file has the following dimensions:6.20'' x 4.20''
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:6'' x 4''
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)Templates

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.
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 used Chilli Printing for over two years now and have enjoyed excellent customer care, ease of ordering, and quality printed product with each order.
From selecting my product, production and shipping time, to order fulfillment, ChilliPrinting makes the process clear and easy.

Every order is perfect! If there ever is a problem, (mostly with damage in transit), customer service handles the problem swiftly.
Fantastic prints and delivered on time. Great Job. Highly recommend.
I love ordering posters from you! Great quality and quick turn around. Lots of information and tips to help me make each poster I submit to you look great.
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.
SUPER FAST shipping, beautiful ink colors, excellent craftsmanship, best price we could find. We'll very definitely be a return customer!

Quick, great response to questions on the website chat. And my 6-fold accordion brochure came out beautiful with vibrant colors!
Phenomenal Service, Outstanding Print Quality the best experience I have ever had.
Great experience with ChilliPrinting customer service. They helped make my project a success!
I understand every time we are not going to get as lucky, but our 8-10 day production schedule turned into 2 days this time! Obviously the quality still needs to be there, and it was. Good work.
Printing and paper for poster looked very good. Good turn around.
Excellent quality for an economical price. Will definitely use again!
Booklets came out perfect, quality was very good, and the turnaround was perfect.
Consistently beyond expectations. Nothing else seems to put my experience with ChilliPrinting into words. Thank You yet again!!!
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!
