Printing & Customisation
We offer the option to professionally and effectively print on some of our items – your packaging is your advertising space! From your logo to informative texts and even promotional actions such as QR codes, anything is possible. Here you will learn how to turn your graphic ideas into finished print files.
Printing Process: Quick Guide
Download the “Print Template” file from the page of your desired item. Then open this PDF file in the graphic design software of your choice (e.g. Adobe Illustrator). Place your design elements (logos, images, texts, etc.) on a separate layer from the print layout (“Technical Layer”) (usually already created by us and named “Artwork Layer”).
► Very important: Do not alter the existing layers and elements.
Ensure that you convert texts to outlines, which in Adobe Illustrator can be done easily using the shortcut “CTRL+SHIFT+O” (Mac: “CMD+SHIFT+O”) or via the menu under “Type → Create Outlines”. To be on the safe side, it's best to select everything before the final save (Windows: “CTRL+A”, Mac: “CMD+A”) and then convert it to outlines as described.
► Caution: Your text will no longer be easily editable after this, so do this step last.
If you're still unsure or want to be extra cautious, you'll find a link to the relevant “Printing Information” page next to the print template on our site, available for every printable item. Here, we provide more detailed information on resolution, safety margins, etc. – but if you do not alter our print template and simply add your elements, most of the work should already be done.
