Invitation Printing FAQs
Q: What is the best size for invitation printing?A: The 4” x 6” is the commonly used size for events like birthdays and parties. The slightly larger 5” x 7” is the standard for bigger occasions like award shows, formal events, and weddings.
Q: How do I prepare my file for silk or foil printing?
A:
- Generate 2 layers of your design.
- Set the first layer in CMYK color mode. This will be printed in regular ink.
- The second layer will be the reference for the foil or metallic print. The area in foil should be colored 100% K (key/black in CMYK) and the rest of the design in white.
- If your foil or metallic printing has a spot UV coating, create a third layer for this area. Set the spot UV area in 100% K and the rest of the design in white.
- Review all the layers and see if they are aligned before submitting the file to our site.
Q: Are there specific guidelines for invitation files uploaded for printing?
A:

- Make sure the file follows these guidelines:
- Bleed sets the background color or image to the edge of the page.
- The trim line is the cut line so that the chosen size will be achieved.
- The caution zone ensures that the text is placed 1/8” away from the trim line so that the copy is not cut off or too close to the edge.
