Using Our Product Templates

When using any of our product templates there are a few things to keep in mind:

The Guides Are Just That...Guides
The guides given in the template files are only guides. There is a margin for error of roughly a couple millimeters give or take. While that may not sound like a lot, it seems like miles when you want to align a border with an edge. The templates were meant to show the possible wrap or cut areas, not the exact points at which cuts or wraps will occur. If you want a border, allow enough inside or outside the guide area to look like a deliberate choice. Don't align your border with the guide edge exactly and expect it to line up exactly with the edge of a wrap or book. We simply cannot be that precise. The same advice goes for text alignment.

Turn Off the Guide Layer
Remember to turn the guide layer(s) off before flattening and saving the final draft of your work. We print from exactly what you send us and, as I mentioned prior, those guides may not be hidden by a wrap or be cut off so it's best not to include them in the finished image.

This Weeks Links I Like:
