Simple File Formats
If you plan to print a two-sided item like Posters or Flyers, you only need to upload a multi-page file. Alternatively, you can upload a separate file for each side. Just ensure the alignment of both files is the same (Portrait or Landscape).
Saddle-Stitched File Formats
Say you wanted to print saddle-stitched (staple-bound) Booklets. You can submit one multi-page print file. The first page should be your front cover; the second should be your inside front cover, and so on. The last page will be your back cover.
You can also submit a separate file for each page or a double-page spread. Once you have uploaded all your files, you can rearrange the page order by dragging the thumbnail to its new position – no other online printing platform offers this!
Wire-O Bound File Formats
Like a saddle-stitched format, if you’re printing Wire-O bound Booklets, you can submit a single file with all pages in the order you want them to appear in print. Again, start with the front cover and end with the back cover. We also accept separate files for each page and double-page spreads for this format.
Perfect Bound and Paperback File Formats
You may want to add a spine to your cover design, and there are two ways to do this. You can either:
- Upload a double-page spread design that includes your front cover, spine file and back cover, or
- Upload a separate spine file in addition to your cover design.
The Spine Calculator in your Shopping Cart will give you the dimensions for your spine file. Since you need to upload a separate file for perfect bound book covers, the rest of your files should begin with the first interior page and end with the last page before the back cover.
You can name the spine file clearly so our system can place it correctly, and if you upload a separate file, remember to add bleed.
Casebound / Hardcover File Formats
You need to upload a spine with your cover design. Keep in mind that the cover pages for Hardcover Books have considerably larger bleed areas than those of the interior pages. You will need to include a 0.8″ bleed for the cover design to wrap around the sides of the book board. Hardcover designs can be challenging, so download a template to set your cover design correctly.
How Do I Submit My Files?
Please note our system may rearrange your page order every time you upload a file. You can name your file with a date, and also upload your file to Wetransfer, Googledrive, Dropbox etc. And then share us the link by email.
