Submission specifications for Folded calendars

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. Exclusive finishes need to be within the safety margin
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.
Check line thickness: 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, material, and printing method used.
Keep 15 mm safety margin from the bottom.: Keep all important text and images at least 15 mm away from the bottom of your design. This space must be available for the adhesive strip.

Which production techniques do you use?

For the production of your Folded calendars we use the following production technique(s):
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.

No, the months are not printed on the calendars automatically. You have to put them on the design-file yourself.

Happy client Malt House Crafts 14.10.2021

“Very pleased with the ease of ordering, the speed of my order and the quality of the cards.”

My first order Ms Hilary Furber 12.10.2021

“My first order, a rush job, and I can't fault Helloprint. Perhaps a little slow in responding to chat and emails, but I uploaded the artwork on Sunday evening, approved proofs on Monday morning and the leaflets were delivered as promised on Tuesday afternoon. The quality of the print looks good as well.”

Fantastic service at an unbeatable price! Tom Johnson 12.10.2021

“My first order from Helloprint just arrived (500 business cards) and I couldn't be happier. The team were quick to manually check the quality of the graphics before printing and were quick to answer a query I posed about the colours. Never would I have expected such great service for such low cost. Helloprint has just won a new long-standing customer. Many thanks to the team!”
