File Specifications

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)Templates

I used Chilli for some posters for a book I published and was under a tight time frame. Chilli came through and made it happen! I am VERY happy with the quality of my posters and their great customer service. I definitely will recommend them to others!
Quick production and shipping time and always fantastic quality!
Just letting you know that my map prints are perfect as was the whole entire process. Your company is amazing and wonderful to work with. The sample pack was also stellar. I am so excited to have found you.
I've had several products made and have nearly no complaints. The business cards could have been packaged a little tighter to not cause damage in transit but ever considering that, mine had no damage. Other than that, I am extremely pleased with the quality and timeliness.
AGAIN, ANOTHER PERFECT ORDER! Still amazed at how easy their ordering system is. Plus the consistent quality is hard to beat!
Great prices, great quality and great customer service. THANK YOU!
Overall amazing experience! chilliprinting is the best. I wish it wasn’t extra to have them cut it to a custom size but it’s worth it especially considering their prices are cheap.
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 customer service... quick printing! Will use again! Thank you!
The best printing company I have ever worked with. A four year repeat customer. Their quality is unmatched.
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.
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.
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!
I ordered the 14x3.5" accordion brocure. Excellent customer service! Very fast and quality product! I will definitely reorder!
I wanted to make gift wrap with some of my artwork. The 80# poster paper @ 24x38 inches was perfect. Top quality results! Packing & shipping did a great job — no damage to 1000 posters—4 boxes. Can’t beat the bulk pricing for superb quality printing/materials. Glad I found you!
I appreciated the excellent customer service as well as the first rate printing job. Thank you :)
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!!!
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.
I continue to have excellent service and product from ChilliPrinting.
Great service. Ordered posters with an easy process and fast delivery. Will use service again. Thank You!
Incredible service as always.
Everything went wonderfully! I did have a question when I ordered 2 posters and the Chat provided easy to understand answers right away. Also my order came faster than I thought it would which is always helpful. I'd certainly recommend your services to others.
I love the ChilliPrinting experience. The variable pricing based on production and shipping speed is fantastic. And I always love my results.
The new website makes ordering even easier! As always my posters came on time & printed beautifully.
printed and shipped quickly to customer. Everything always turns out great!
