All objects reaching the print\u2019s format must extend 3 mm beyond the edge so that white space will not become visible due to cutting offsets. It is important to consider bleed when preparing design elements as something important may be cut otherwise. It is also necessary to make sure that the elements on the page are not closer than 3-5 mm to the edge.<\/p><p><strong>White text on black background<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Often, backgrounds consist of rich black, where other partial colours are added to the black, as the regular 100% K black tends to appear too light when used over a larger area. In such a case, even a small registration error makes the text illegible.<\/p><p><strong>For text using serifs, italics, or fine lines<\/strong>, the minimum is 10 pt as a rule; for text without serifs, the minimum is 8 pt. You should avoid using white (negative) text smaller than 8 pt. When using rich black, the ratio should be C50%, K100% or C40%, M30%, Y30%, K100%, which both will ensure almost the maximum possible darkness.<\/p><p><strong>In the case of white text on rich black background<\/strong>, the registration errors can be avoided by an 0.1-0.15mm outline behind the text with a black colour without overprint (C1%, M1%, Y1%, K100%).<\/p><p><strong>Lighter design elements on dark background. <\/strong>We recommend that colour % differences are not too small. For example, when using gray tones, the difference of 10% between C and K may practically disappear in the offset printing. Computer screen can not be used as a reference in these cases as the <strong>computer screen shows the image (significantly) brighter and clearer than the actual printing result<\/strong>. In such cases, we recommend ordering a digital proof from a professional reproduction service before submitting a file to the factory to ensure that the design idea can be completed as a finished print. We\u2019d like to point out that <strong>laminate<\/strong> also changes the final result. Matte laminate makes the image more soft\/dim. Glossy laminate makes the image darker as a whole.<\/p><p><strong>Do not use rich black for smaller texts and line graphics. <\/strong>\u00a0In the case of black texts and objects that are on top of other colourful objects, you should always use black overprint. In such a case, a small deviation in printing can be avoided and white shadow (paper) will not be visible behind the black object. <strong>Overprinting may not be used for white or coloured objects. The white objects disappear and the tone of coloured objects may change.<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>For the designs including Spot-colours,<\/strong>\u00a0a small (up to 0.1 mm)\u00a0<strong>trapping<\/strong> must be ensured. Please do not use colour profiles in design files because it may cause colour distortion!<\/p><p><strong>Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and similar office software, like OpenOffice, are not suitable for printing preparation, and any source materials prepared in these programs (including PDF-files made from these files) are not acceptable.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Design requirements: CMYK \/ SPOT colour system.
