Artwork for screen printed products with halftones should have a 65 line screen on a 45 degree angle, no less than 30% and no greater than 70%. Due to the interaction of the background color and ink color, there will be color variation when printing on a background other than white.

When preparing artwork for digital printing, keep all important copy and graphics at least 1/8” away from die cut edge. It is difficult to match patterns, wraps and lines across seams due to inherent limitations in the printing and die-cutting processes. Provide a 1/8” bleed for die cutting. We will attempt to curve artwork, but doing so may require an art charge.
