Frequently asked Questions

Yes, all our stickers are printed on outdoor rated vinyl using UV ink that is highly durable and resistant to oil, water, and just about anything else you throw at it.

Yes, please contact us with details about your project. 

We can work with most graphic design files however our online designer is limited to the following types (svg, jpeg, jpg, png, gif, bmp, pdf, ai, psd, eps) 

We prefer .ai or .pdf files when uploading files for quote or emailing artwork files. 

Our digital printers use CMYK. If your designer asks what color mode to use it should be CMYK format. However, raster based formats like jpegs and photos are typically in RGB. This format is not ideal for digital printing but if you are starting with an existing image or photo we don’t recommend changing the color mode to CMYK as it will often result in muted colors. Simply upload the photo as is and we will handle any conversion needed on our end.

Yes, however not all of our digital presses and product offerings support this. When ordering stickers or labels with White and/or Clear please ensure these colors are on their own layer and defined as a Spot color named White or Clear respectively. The actual CMYK is not critical but we prefer a visible color like Magenta to call attention to its use.

Please include comments with your order to clarify. 

If you do not want a white border around your print you should add a bleed. Our online designer will help facilitate this by showing the bleed area. A minimum bleed amount of 0.063″ should be added when uploading artwork outside of our online designer. 

yes, please contact us for additional details.
