The basic process of placing a print order can be divided into three steps:

Step 1: Select Product

Before you start placing your print order, it is important to know the print specifications. Size, shape, coating, paper stock, quantity, print finishes, digital or offset – the options are almost endless, and can become overwhelming if you do not know what you are looking for. We recommend having your design ready (or at least in progress) before placing your print order so the specifications for your print order match your design. If you don’t have a specific product in mind, check out our sales, promotions and latest products featured on our homepage, Facebook and Instagram.

If you are still having trouble choosing the right product for your needs – give our Customer Service team a call or email us at info@goprintpr.com to discuss your needs. Once you know what you are looking for you will need to select the product and add it to your cart or place the order by writing us an email at info@goprintpr.com

Step 2: Checkout & Payment

This step includes completing the checkout process, setting your pickup (or shipment) options and completing payment for your order. You will be prompted to complete your details and then proceed to payment. You will be emailed a confirmation and invoice when your payment has been received and order placed. You are now ready to send us the artwork to be printed.

Step 3: Upload Artwork

Once you have placed your order you will need to upload files to be printed. Don’t worry if you aren’t quite ready yet – you can also send us your artwork via email to trafico@goprintpr.com and providing us with your order number. The deadline for uploading files and approving your proof(s) is within 30 days from the date the order is placed for regular priced products, and within 7 days following the end of the sale for sale items. If you miss these deadlines you may need to pay for any applicable price increases.

If you placed multiple orders, please ensure you upload the correct files to the correct order.

Here are some basic specifications:

• Export as PDF file (preferred)
• All images should be 300 DPI or higher (at 100%)
• CMYK color mode
• 0.125 inches of bleed on all sides (0.25 inches additional width and height)
• 0.125 inch safety margin (inside trim line)

You can submit one PDF file (with multiple pages) or a separate PDF files for each side/page.

Handy tip:

Detailed naming of your files will help us process your order quicker (for example, “Set1_Front.pdf”, “Set1_Back.pdf”, “Set2_Front.pdf”, “Set2_Back.pdf” etc.)

In order to know what resolution an image file will need to be – you will first need to know the size you would like to use the image at (for example 4″x 6″).
As our recommended pixels-per- inch (PPI) is 300, multiply these dimensions by 300 to find out the minimum recommended resolution (in pixels) for that image.

Hence, a 4 x 6 inch image should be 1200 x 1800 pixels (or larger), as calculated below:

• Width: 4″ x 300 = 1200 pixels
• Height: 6″ x 300 = 1800 pixels

PDF stands for “Portable Document Format”. A PDF is a digital file format used to represent electronic text, images and graphics. It supports both pixel-based (raster) and vector graphics.

PDF is a standard file format used in the print industry, as it is not dependent on application software or hardware to display. It encapsulates images, fonts and other information required in one file for easy viewing, electronic transmission and printing.

The filename extension for PDF files is “.pdf”
To view PDF files, Adobe Acrobat Reader is available for free download.

For all orders, we always recommend converting the colors to CMYK mode.
This allows you to have greater control over the color values; as well as manage the consistency of the color values.
Colors will be converted to CMYK mode (as required) during the pre- press/proofing stage of your order.

However as there are several conversion methods the CMYK values produced may not be consistent, or the best match for your color. For this reason, we highly recommend that the conversion to CMYK be done to the original design file before uploading.

Bleed is the area past the trim edge or finished size.
If any element of your artwork is designed to be printed to the edge, it must be extended past the trim line and into the bleed area by a minimum of 0.125″.

The addition of bleed compensates for uncontrollable shifts that occur during the printing and trimming process; and ensures that any content touching the edges does not leave unwanted gaps or borders.

The bleed area will be visible on your PDF file but will be trimmed off, so only the artwork within the trim line will be on your finished product.

If you are using design software or an application such as Microsoft Word, Publisher, PowerPoint or Quark, unfortunately we are unable to provide support; however we do have a few suggestions when using these applications.

To print from these applications, we will require a PDF ready to print file.

To create a PDF file, each application is different, but we can suggest:

• Select File > Save As; and choose “PDF” file format
• Select File > Print; and then “Print As PDF” and then saving it to your desired location.

Many of the PDF files exported from these applications will not be press-ready. These PDF files may need adjustment by our pre-press or design team. If the exported PDF meets our print specifications– it is ready for printing.

If your file requires adjustment by our creative team, we will notify you and provide you with a quote for these service.
