Properly Prepared Print Files Help Prevent Delays and Quality Problems

Lensahn, Germany. Missing bleed, low-resolution images, unsuitable color settings, and unembedded fonts are common reasons print files require correction before production. Vollbracht Digitaldruck is encouraging customers to review essential technical details before submitting artwork.

The document should be created at the intended finished size. When an image or background reaches the edge, artwork must extend into the required bleed area so minor cutting tolerances do not leave a white border. Important text and logos should remain inside a safe area away from the trim line.

Images must provide enough effective resolution at their final printed size. Enlarging a small online image does not restore missing detail. Color settings also matter because screens use RGB light while many print processes use CMYK inks. Brand-critical colors may need a proof or a separately agreed color specification.

Before delivery, customers should open the exported PDF and confirm dimensions, page count, orientation, spelling, image quality, fonts, and margins. The exact requirements can vary according to the material, product, and finishing process, so the printer’s specifications should be checked before export.

Vollbracht Digitaldruck produces a range of digital print and advertising products. Customers can contact the company before production for guidance on file requirements. Service information and contact options are available on the company website.
