We know how important your holiday orders are and don't want to see them delayed. As part of our ongoing effort to ensure that your holiday orders are processed accurately and efficiently, we offer a few simple tips. Follow these guidelines and you'll help us to avoid the most common production delays.
Borders: When designing prints with borders for the Iris and Whistler flush-mounted albums, allow a minimum 1/2 inch border between the image and the outer edge of the print. This is to guarantee that the border remains and is balanced after trimming. Please note up t0 1/8 inch will be trimmed off of the outer 3 sides of each print.
Full Bleed: When designing full bleed prints for the Iris and Whistler books allow for trimming to prevent awkward crops. Up to 1/8 inch will be trimmed off of three sides of each print. The side of the image that touches the inside spine (gutter) WILL NOT be trimmed.
Layout: Email or submit a hard copy of a layout guide to assist our artisans in constructing your custom album.
Additional Helpful Reminders:
- For The Iris & Whistler albums, the print size is the same as book size. A 10x10 book has 10x10 prints mounted to the edge of each page. Please send files or prints to size.
- Don't forget to supply a cover image with your files or prints, if applicable.
- Finally, look over your order form thoroughly before submitting and call with any questions.
Don't hesitate to contact us! We are always happy to help guide you through the process.
