Submission specifications for Multilayer Business Cards
- Add 3 mm bleed.
- To allow leeway for cutting differences in production, always add a bleed of 3 mm around all edges of your design. Make sure colours, background pictures and layouts extend into the bleed area so as to avoid leaving white lines as a result of cutting tolerances.
- Keep 4 mm safety margin
- Keep all important text and images at least 4 mm away from the edge of the finished size.
- Use CMYK as the color mode.
- Prepare your files using CMYK as the color mode, not RGB. Use colormode FOGRA39 (ISO Coated v2) for coated papertypes and colormode FOGRA47 (PSO Uncoated ISO12647) for uncoated papertypes. If you are unsure of the colour mode of your file, don't worry we can always convert this for you. Keep in mind this can cause the colours to differ from the original file.
- Resolution of at least 300 dpi.
- Make sure the resolution of the images and graphics in your artwork are at least 300 dpi.
- Convert fonts to outlines or embed all the fonts.
- Make sure you convert fonts to outlines or embed all the fonts when saving it to PDF.
- Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.
- Force Color Images to CMYK with a 260% ink limit (in Photoshop > Convert Color Profile > Photoshop 5 Default CMYK). Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.
- Save your files in uneditable, print-ready file formats.
- Save your files in uneditable, print-ready file formats (PDF (1.4 or higher), TIFF, EPS, JPG). Deliver your files in one layer: the background layer.
- Use the right values for full color black.
- Use Rich Black (C:63% M:52% Y:51% K:100%) for larger areas and text to get a deep black color. Do not use this value for text smaller than 15 pt or plain text. This can only be used in full color printing. For designing black smaller texts use 100% black.
- Lines should be at least 0.25 pt.
- Lines should be at least 0.25 pt. Negative lines should be at least 0.5 pt.
- Check your artwork on overprint.
- Make sure no elements in your artwork are set on overprint. Unless you want this effect in your design. The degree of transparency in printing depends on the ink, paper, and printing method used.

Frequently asked questions for Multilayer Business Cards
- What is this product exactly? And what can I use it for?
-
- These luxurious eye-catching business cards feature an incredible multi-layered technique to combine three layers into one beautiful card. The thickness of the paper (810 gsm) creates an exclusive feeling. The middle layer is where the magic happens. Choose a colour you like (for example the colour of your logo), to create unique business cards.
- What is the thickness of this product?
-
- 810gsm
- What is the fastest possible turnaround?
-
- The fastest possible turnaround for Multilayer Business Cards is:
- 2 working days
- Note only applicable for products which require your design: To make sure that your order is delivered at the indicated time, it is important that we receive your file with your design for the product, on time (also called cut-off time). In this way the product can be put into production on time. The deadline is always communicated in the yellow bar on the product page, above the "Add to shopping cart" button.
- The cut-off time for your printed item may vary. This depends on the combination you choose. This has to do with the manufacturing technique and / or the order quantities.
- NOTE: The product delivery shifts a day every time the deadline for submission has passed. This is also the case if the file is rejected by us and corrected artwork isn't supplied before the next cut off time.
- Which production techniques do you use?
-
Digital printing uses four colours (CMYK) with toners and inks to print digital files. This option is comparable to large home printer, and is cheaper than ‘litho’ printing for smaller quantities. This is because there are less starting costs, less components involved, and no ink drying time necessary.

“Just a fantastic service it's like having a print specialist as part of your own team. They are never too busy to take your call or message. The quality products speak for themselves. They care about the output of your prints and won't be satisfied unless it's top-notch. Can't recommend HelloPrint enough. Big props to the online chat team, they deal with so much and still manage to nail the solution.”

In fact, I was very happy with my printing and impressed that a customer service person was available online to help me out with a last minute panic about something before the artwork upload deadline.”
“We have been a customer of helloprint for quite some time now and we have always found them to be helpful, supportive, and provide a good service throughout. I myself have found the staff, Lucy, Sarah and others to be helpful with any queries that I have had and I would recommend helloprint to any future prospective customers. :)”
