1/8” (0.125”) for smooth, consistent results
1/25” (0.04”), available when your design allows for more precise cuts
Artwork resolution plays a crucial role in print quality. Here's why 300 DPI is the standard for printing:
High DPI ensures your design looks clean and professional without pixelation.
More pixels result in more precise color representation.
Avoid blurry, distorted prints that may harm your brand's image.
To set up artwork for die-cut stickers, use two layers: one for the artwork and one for the cut path. Ensure your document includes a bleed area ( 0.125 inches), is set to the final size, and has a resolution of at least 300 DPI in CMYK color mode. The cut path should be a distinct, 1-pixel stroke on its own layer, at least 0.25 inches from other cut paths.
Artwork Setup
Size & Layout Guidelines
| Minimum Size: | 0.50” x 0.50” |
| Maximum Size: | 11” x 14” |
| Safety Margin: | Leave at least 1/8” (0.125") of space around the edge of your design to prevent accidental trimming |
| Small Details: | We can print fine elements and fonts as small as 5 pt clearly |
| Wrap-Around Labels: | For containers like tubes or jars, add 1/4” to the length so the label overlaps cleanly |
Design considerations
1.Transparency: Make sure your background is transparent, especially if you are using a die-cut design. The die-cut will follow the outer edge of your artwork, so any background colors should extend to the bleed line to ensure there are no white edges after cutting.
2.Layers: Create at least two layers: one for your artwork and one for the cut path.
Artwork Layer: Place your design on the bottom layer. Ensure that any background colors or elements extend all the way to the bleed line for a seamless edge.
Cut Path Layer: Create the cut path on a separate layer, often named "Cut Path" or "cut". This should be a vector path outlining the shape of your design.
3.Use a 1-Pixel Stroke: Define the cut path with a 1-pixel stroke (any color is fine, but 1-pixel is standard). This ensures the cut path is clearly visible for the printer and die-cutter.
4.Naming the Layers: Some printers may have specific naming conventions for the cut path layer. Always check with your provider to ensure it’s named correctly.
5.Add an Outline: Optionally, you can add a white or colored border (0.125 inches is common) around your design. This will help your design stand out and provide a clean, defined edge after cutting.
6.Simplicity: For die-cut stickers, bold, simple designs work best. Intricate or tiny details may be hard to cut accurately, especially with small designs.
7.High Contrast: Designs with high contrast (e.g., dark text on a light background) tend to stand out more and look clearer when cut into specific shapes, making your stickers more eye-catching.
8.Cutting Considerations: When creating the cut path, avoid overly intricate shapes that might be hard to cut with precision. Simple, bold outlines tend to work better for die-cut stickers, ensuring the shape is clean and crisp.
