Postcard printing and design

Postcard printing

Printing at Andreoni is done on professional printing presses using superior materials. The quality of the cards on which your design is printed is just as important as the design itself. The best way to judge our quality of printing is by simply comparing our cards to any other cards on the market. To do so, we invite you to order free samples from us, and from any other company printing full color cards. You can order samples of our business cards and postcards using our order form below.

How to order postcards

Step 1. Preparing your files

Your Artwork
    

Minimum Artwork Resolution is 300 dpi

Make sure your artwork's resolution is at least 300 dpi. This resolution will ensure that your design will appear crisp and sharp instead of blurry and pixelized.

  

Convert your graphics to CMYK colors 

Your files should be saved in CMYK mode before you send them to us. When we receive a design file in RGB mode, we automatically convert the files to CMYK mode for printing. RGB files cannot be printed on professional four color presses. Not every RGB color has a CMYK equivalent, and the result could be more than just subtle color shifts.

  

"Bleed" and card size

Your postcard size will be 4" x 6"

Your design work should be 4.25" x 6.25" (with BLEED)

  

"Bleed" is a printing term used to indicate the area that will be trimmed off after the job is printed and cut to the finished size. Since the bleed extends 1/8" all around the card, your design document set-up should be 1/8" wider all around.

Since the bleed area will be trimmed off during the cutting process, there can be no text or other important information in the bleed area.

   

Furthermore, we require an additional 1/8" buffer margin inside the edges of the card.

The following are file formats which are the easiest to work with and which provide the best results:

Jpg, bmp, tif, eps, bmp, psd, ai, cdr
