Four-color printing is our latest printing method and also one of the fastest. In the best case scenario, stickers are ready for pick-up in less than an hour.

In four-color printing, just like in digital printing, almost any file format can be used as the printing file. Formats such as jpg, pdf, bmp, gif, eps, ai, idd, and so on usually work well. Photos and color gradients reproduce with high quality. However, the image should be of the highest possible quality, so if the image is graphic, it is advisable to save and send it as a vector file to ensure the best print quality.
The color space should be CMYK, the color profile should be U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2, and all rasterized images should be at least 300 dpi.

Additionally, a 2mm bleed must be left on both the cutting path inwards and outwards. This ensures that the content of the sticker is protected.
