Design guidelines
To make artwork setup simple, we recommend downloading the relevant template from the 'Product Templates' section above. Don’t forget to follow the template instructions and delete the 'guide' layer before exporting your design to a PDF.
For best printing results, ensure your artwork and images are CMYK. If you use RGB, Pantone or spot colours in any element of your artwork, we will automatically convert them to CMYK which may change your colour profile.
To eliminate any font issues, make sure all fonts are ‘embedded’ or ‘converted to outlines’ before creating your PDF print file. To ensure legibility, we recommend using a minimum font size of 10pt.
For optimal image print quality, ensure all images are 300dpi to 450dpi. Anything lower than 300dpi will give poor image quality. Images higher than 450dpi will result in high file sizes and may cause longer upload times.
To avoid alignment issues during cutting, be sure to include ‘crop marks’ (offset 10mm) and ‘document bleed’ when exporting your artwork file to PDF. Refer to our product templates for the required bleed specifications.
To meet our print requirements, ensure your file is exported in Adobe PDF (Print) format, ideally as PDF/X-1a: 2001.

Print lamination types explained
Choosing the right finish can completely change the look and feel of your print. Watch our Print Lamination Types Explained video guide to compare gloss, matt and soft touch lamination options and find the best fit for your design.
Laminating your silk business card is a smart decision. It enhances durability, safeguarding your card from damage and adds a polished finish that makes it truly stand out. Whether you prefer the vibrancy of shiny business cards, the elegance of matt finish business cards, or the luxurious feel of velvet laminated business cards, there's a finish to complement every style.
Gloss: A shiny, vibrant finish that enhances colours and images
Matt: A sleek, professional look with a subtle, non-reflective surface
Soft Touch: A luxurious, velvety texture that creates a premium tactile feel
Laminated business cards are not recyclable. The plastic lamination makes them unsuitable for recycling processes. It's always best to check your local guidelines for specific guidelines on the disposal of laminated items.
