Submission specifications for Laptop Stickers

We recommend using our templates and guides for preparing your print-ready PDF.

You can download our guides and templates in the template section. Remember to delete the template layers before exporting your design to PDF. If you already have a design, no worries; we accept other file formats, including JPEG, PNG, or EPS. For photographic content, high-resolution JPEGs are recommended, preferably without compression. For graphics or text-based content, we recommend print-ready, vector-based PDFs. For content that is a combination of graphics and photography, we suggest using print-ready PDFs to ensure the best quality.

Here you can find the customised submission specifications for contour cutting.

If you want your product to be cut to a custom shape, you will have to add it as a vector shape on top of your design. Make sure the width of the stroke is 1 pt, the colour is a 100% magenta spot and named "cutcontour". You only need to add one contour line. If you want us to adjust it for you, please send the custom shape on a separate page in the desired position. Please note that bleed is still needed for custom shaped designs, meaning your design must go at least 5 mm past the contour cut line.

Use CMYK as the colour mode.

Prepare your files using CMYK as the colour mode, not RGB. Use colourmode FOGRA39 (ISO Coated v2) for coated papertypes and colourmode 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 150 dpi.

Make sure the resolution of the images and graphics in your artwork are at least 150 dpi.

Add 5 mm bleed and keep 10 mm safety margin

During production, there might be a slight cut deviation. To avoid any issues, we recommend the following:

• Add a 5 mm bleed around all edges of your design.
• Keep important elements 10 mm away from the edge or folding lines.

Text and fonts specifications (Min. font size is 12 pt)

For this product, the minimum font size is 12 pt. To avoid any issues, we recommend the following:

• Fonts must be embedded or outlined.
• If your design contains small black text, make sure it is 100 % black (Cyan: 0 Magenta: 0 Yellow: 0 Black: 100).

Note that we don't check spelling or typographical errors.

Lines should be at least 3 pt.

The lines should be at least 3 pt.

Check your artwork for overprint.

Make sure no elements in your artwork are set on overprint unless you want this effect in your design. You can read more about overprint in our Help Centre.

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 by the stated cut-off time. This way, the product can be moved into production promptly.
  Please note: The delivery date 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 submitted before the next cut-off time.

Which production techniques do we use?

• UV-print: The product is printed with eco-friendly UV ink, which is immediately cured with a UV light. Curing ensures that the wet ink doesn't spread once printed, offering sharper quality prints.
  
• • Latex-print: The film is printed with eco-friendly latex inks. These inks are water based and doesn't contain harmful substances. The latex film is very secure and sturdy, and will be placed on top of the material.

What materials can I choose from?

• Polymer White (2-3 years, 75 μm): Provides good coverage on a coloured surface, has an insoluble adhesive layer and is rain and sun resistant. The adhesive is environmentally friendly and has a long lifecycle.
• Transparant Polymer (2-3 years, 75 μm): Perfect for windows and glass panels, has an insoluble adhesive layer and is rain and sun resistant. The adhesive is environmentally friendly and has a long lifecycle.
  
  Note: Keep in mind that if you choose a matte lamination, it reduces the transparancy of the stickers, giving it a cloudy effect.

Can transparent stickers be printed with a white design?

• No, but if you'd like your transparent stickers to be printed with a white design, please contact our quotes team.

Do all labels have a break line on the back?

• Not all stickers have a break line. For production reasons, the break line cannot be guaranteed for our individual stickers. If you require stickers to have a break line, please request a quote.

Which carriers are used for the delivery?

• For the delivery of Laptop Stickers, we use our most reliable carriers which, in most cases, are UPS or DPD.
• We also use DHL and our own courier service. However, these carriers are only used for certain products (depending on the size, the turnaround and the quantity).

Can Laptop Stickers be used outdoors?

• We would not recommend using Laptop Stickers outdoors. If you want to use a sticker outside, we recommend using one of ours 90 grams white or transparent PVC. Keep in mind that the lifespan of the labels is influenced by the weather conditions. A label that is used outside has a shorter lifespan than a label used inside.
