Frequently Asked Questions
In the realm of printing, “bleed” refers to the printing that extends beyond the edge where the sheet will be trimmed. Essentially, the bleed is the excess area intended for trimming. This bleed serves as the margin on the side of a document, allowing the printer a small allowance to accommodate paper movement and address design inconsistencies.
- For Business Cards, Flyers, Brochures, Stickers, Posters, and Magnets, a 2mm bleed is required on both the inner and outer sides of the cut area.
- All Booklets necessitate a 5mm bleed on both the inner and outer sides of the cut area.
- For All Signs and Banners, a 1cm bleed on both the inner and outer sides of the cut area is necessary.
If these specifications seem complex, don’t worry. You can visit our “how to add bleeding” page for more detailed information on bleed requirements.
Rest assured, we perform a thorough double inspection and will notify the buyer if there are any issues with the artwork regarding bleeding.
How RGB and CMYK Different
Your computer monitor is composed of pixels, and each pixel can display over 16 million colors within the RGB gamut, which essentially encompasses all colors in light. However, your printer’s capability is limited to reproducing only a few thousand colors due to the principles of absorption and reflection. In simpler terms, the pigments and dyes in the printer absorb unused light colors and reflect back a CMYK combination that closely approximates the actual color. In every instance, the printed result tends to be slightly darker than the image on the screen.
For those new to this subject, the advice above may seem a bit intricate. The key factor is the number of colors available in a particular Color Space. Standard office inkjet printers utilize Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black cartridges – traditional printing inks – and combine these four colors to produce a range of colors. However, the number of distinct colors that can be generated with ink is limited, generally to a maximum of a few thousand.
Computer screens, on the other hand, operate in a different color space known as RGB, where colors are created with light. In broad terms, a computer monitor can display around 16.7 million colors, thanks to the RGB color space.
Remember, you can’t print light. Your printer’s output will always appear darker than the image on your screen. To illustrate, if you draw a circle on a sheet of paper to represent all visible and invisible colors known to modern man, with a black dot in the middle, you’ll get a sense of why colors change. The outer circle represents the RGB gamut, and the inner circle represents the CMYK gamut. As you move from the outer edge of the paper towards the dot in the middle, colors get darker. When you convert RGB colors to CMYK, they are pulled to their nearest CMYK equivalent, resulting in a darker appearance. In essence, you can’t print light, which is why your printer output doesn’t precisely match your screen.
CONFIRMATION:
Please carefully review all details. However, no responsibility will be assumed for any mistakes (wrong typesetting or design) once the artwork has been approved. Artwork cannot be used or sent to another design company before full payment has been received. If you provide your own artwork, please ensure that the size and image quality are correct and ready for printing before making the payment.
COLOURY:
Our printer does not reproduce colors exactly as seen on your monitor. While the image may appear vibrant on the screen, it may not print true to the screen. This is a fundamental truth. Achieving a perfect match is impossible because the image on the screen and the output from your printer are two different entities. The pixels on your screen emit light, while your printer uses dyes and pigments to replicate colors.
Return & Refunds
We are not required to provide a refund or replacement if you change your mind. But you can choose a refund or exchange if an item has a major problem. This is when the item:
• has a problem that would have stopped someone from buying the item if they had known about it
