Creating a new document in Adobe Illustrator with the right settings straight away is very simple.

It is important to check if the format of your artwork file matches the product you want to buy online!

Don't forget to set bleed of 3mm, as well as a security margin of 3mm!

Ensure that the images you use have a resolution of at least 300 DPI.

In order to ensure high print quality, it is crucial that you set your document's color mode to CMYK.

Change your artwork's fonts to curves to avoid compatibility issues and printing problems.

Save your artwork as a PDF-X1a file for optimal compatibility.

Set up your grey colors only with black (K), and no C, M, or Y!

Black can actually cause a lot of trouble during printing if not correctly used.

Don't forget to properly configure thin lines and small elements to ensure readability.

When setting up an artwork file that contains folds, it is important to beware of the safety margins on each side of the folding lines.
