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 all important text and images at least 4 mm away from the edge of the finished size.
Prepare your files using CMYK as the colour mode, not RGB. Use colourmode FOGRA39 (ISO Coated v2). 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.
Make sure the resolution of the images and graphics in your artwork are at least 300 dpi.
Make sure you convert fonts to outlines or embed all the fonts when saving it to PDF.
Force Colour Images to CMYK with a 260% ink limit (in Photoshop > Convert Colour Profile > Photoshop 5 Default CMYK). Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.
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.
Fonts should be at least 6 pt.
Use Rich Black (C:63% M:52% Y:51% K:100%) for larger areas and text to get a deep black colour. Do not use this value for text smaller than 15 pt or plain text. This can only be used in full colour printing. For designing black smaller texts use 100% black.
Lines should be at least 0.25 pt. Negative lines should be at least 0.5 pt.
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.

White offset paper offers a traditional, bright white look, while biotop offwhite paper provides a natural, unique texture for a rustic feel.
Recycled paper is a sustainable option that utilises recycled materials and has a slightly different appearance to non-recycled paper.
Standard White
Standard White
White offset paper is a high-quality, bright white uncoated paper most commonly used for letterhead printing.
It offers a clean and professional appearance with excellent ink absorption and sharp image reproduction.
It's also writable and suitable for both laser and inkjet printers.
Choose from 80gsm, 90gsm, 100gsm and 120gsm paper.
White Recycled
White Recycled
Recycled uncoated paper is crafted from post-consumer and pre-consumer waste fibres. It's an eco-friendly option that helps reduce the demand for new raw materials.
Recycled paper has a slightly different appearance, with visible fibres and a less uniform colour.
This paper is also writable and suitable for both laser and inkjet printers.
Choose from 80 gsm and 120 gsm paper.
Biotop Off-white
Biotop Off-white
This biotop off-white paper is chlorine-free bleached (TCF) with a unique, natural uncoated feel, ensuring an elegant and stylish appearance that adds character to your letterheads. This paper is suitable for both laser and inkjet printing machines.
Choose from 90 gsm and 120 gsm paper.
Full Colour
Full colour printing is the more cost-effective option and entails the use of four colours: cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK). It involves combining multiple print orders onto a single printing sheet to optimise efficiency and reduce costs. With full colour printing, you can enjoy a diverse palette of colours, shades, and gradients.
Choose between single-sided or double-sided full colour printing and create eye-catching letterheads!
Keep in mind that slight colour variations may arise between different print runs due to disparities in printing equipment, materials, and environmental factors.
PMS Colours
PMS stands for Pantone Matching System, in which colours are identified by numbering. As a result, a PMS colour is exactly the same at every printer. When opting for PMS printing, your order is specifically set, printed, and finished to provide the utmost accuracy in representing your colours.
You can choose to print your letterhead paper with one, two, or three PMS colours on one or both sides.
If your design has more than three colours, full colour printing is the ideal choice.
Branding consistency
Ensure that your letterhead design aligns with your brand identity, including colours, fonts, and logo placement.
Consistency helps build brand recognition and reinforces your brand image.
Incorporate your logo
The letterhead is an extension of your brand, so make sure to include your logo prominently. It is most common to place a logo in the top right or left corner of the letterhead.
Clear and concise information
Include essential contact details such as your company name, company number, address, phone number, email, and website. Make sure the information is legible and easy to locate on the letterhead.
Keep it simple
A letterhead should be easy to read and not overly cluttered. Leave sufficient white space around your letterhead elements to create a clean and uncluttered appearance.
White space helps improve readability and makes your design visually appealing.
