3. Why don’t you deliver to a P.O. Box address?

Unfortunately, our carrier does not provide delivery to P.O. Box addresses. Please make sure you input a physical street address for your package destination.




4. Should my file be designed using CMYK or RGB color pallette?

Should my file be designed using CMYK or RGB color pallette? We do ask all custom uploaded files to be designed in CMYK, and uploaded in CMYK. You may also upload in RGB if you prefer, however the color will be converted into CMYK and may not be as accurate. As a good rule of thumb, if your file contains large quantities of blues and purples, it may be best to limit the magenta hues in the design by at least 10%. If you do upload in CMYK, we ask you to design using our preferred color profile for better color accuracy. Overnight Prints uses the GRACoL 2006 color profile.

Please Note Color fidelity warranted by Overnight Prints is consistent with industry standards for "pleasing color". We offer no guarantee of "matchprint" or "match-product" color fidelity. Overnight Prints cannot prevent slight color shift throughout an order, and does not guarantee color will match the preview as it appears on a customer's monitor, as we cannot compensate for a color variance on each customer's monitor.




5. What is the correct orientation to design my file? How do I make sure my brochure folds correctly?

For card orientation:
Please review our Card Orientation page CARD ORIENTATION for helpful hints on correct orientation.

For brochure folding guidelines:
Keep in mind, there is a 1/16th of an inch cutting tolerance as well as a 1/16th of an inch folding tolerance, which may cause the image to shift after print, cut, and fold. We recommend having a gradient or solid color background for a better final product.

Checklist:

  • The document size of the file must be 8.627" X 11.127" or 2588 X 3338 pixels. All text or images need to be within the safe zone 8.373"X10.873"
  • For the inside of the brochure, place your guidelines at 3.718" (left panel), 3.696" (center panel), and 3.586" (right panel).
  • For the outside of the brochure, please place your guidelines at 3.586" (left panel), 3.696" (center panel) and 3.718" (right panel).

The final product will be cut down to an 8.5"X11" brochure for shipment.

Please Note If you are planning to fold our business card and post card products in any way, please email or call us to verify the correct orientation for folding. However, we do not recommend folding due to ink chipping from wear and tear.
