FAQ's

DETAILS & DESIGN GUIDE

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIE-CUT & EASY PEEL STICKERS?

When you select Custom Shaped Stickers, you have the choice of Die Cut or Easy Peel. For ALL Custom Shape Stickers, the sticker will have the shape of the contour of the artwork you provide - this is called the Contour Cut Path and can be indicated in vector artwork by a red dashed line which we will convert to a Cut Path when printing. When you peel a cat shaped sticker from the backing sheet - it will be cut in the shape of a cat (we indicate this on the proofs we send prior to printing). The difference is: with 'Easy Peel' selected - the sticker will be cut to the appropriate shape and have a backing sheet (either square or rectangular) which is larger than the cut-to-shape sticker which makes them easy to peel away from the backing sheet and apply to a surface. With the 'Die-Cut' option selected the sticker AND the backing sheet will be cut in the shape of the contour of the artwork shape - this is more difficult to peel but can look cool. (*Note: Die-cut stickers must have a white border for the cutting process). Both 'Easy Peel' and Die-Cut' stickers are cut to the shape of the artwork.

ARTWORK GUIDELINES

Preferred File Format: vector based .AI, .EPS or PDF with all type to outlines.
Usable File Formats: .PNG or .PSD files with a transparent background (our printer prints white - so a white background will print white)
File Resolution: Minimum 300 dpi/ppi

Tips to print the best things possible:

  1. If you are supplying vector files (we love that), please make sure to outline your type (we may have thousands of fonts, but we might not have one you are using).
  2. Bigger is better - if you are uncertain of the resolution you are exporting - go big. We can always down-size and image, but a 72 dpi image will not provide a satisfactory result for your print.
  3. If your supplied artwork is suitable, we will size and prepare it for print at no extra charge. If your supplied artwork requires digital surgery, we will inform you and provide options.
  4. Send us an example. If you are uncertain whether or not your artwork will print the way you want it to - email us an example at [email protected]
  5. Don't Panic! If you have questions or are unsure about something, shoot us an email or drop us a line during business hours. We want to print your things so that they look the best they possibly can. If your things don't look good, we don't look good!
