Other Points

Before creating PDF files, please create outlines for all the fonts, or attach the TrueType TTF fonts you used in the artwork, as we do not print directly from the PDF files.

Texts in image files (JPG, GIF, BMP, PNG) will not be printed as sharp as other formats with text layers like Corel Draw, Illustrator, Photoshop, PDF, Freehand,... We suggest you create your text layers in one of our Photoshop or Illustrator Templates to get better printing results.

If you have used special fonts (or Mac fonts), please send the TrueType TTF font files to us as well, to avoid any font problems, please transfer the texts into vector paths (create outlines).

We also recommend you prepare your artwork in 4 colour CMYK format, and compress all your files including a readme.txt with your introductions into a .ZIP or .RAR file

If you have any problems with our upload form, you can send your artwork to artwork@dd-cards.com. Use your Order No. as title of your email and we'll get you sorted out.

IMPORTANT

You are required to leave a blank space (either a white rectangle or another blank area) on the card where your download codes can be printed. You must also include simple directions such as: ¨go to www.dd-cards.com/yourbandname and enter the following download code¨. Click here to see some examples. Artwork must meet this basic requirement to be approved.
