Printing Tips

Print at Home

PAPER TYPE: We recommend plain white paper or cardstock which is 170gsm in weight or heavier. This ensures a professional finish.  For envelopes, loot bags & pinwheels, regular (80gsm) printer paper works best.


PRINTER SETTINGS: Your files are formatted on 8x11inch sheets. This is designed to suit both US Letter & A4 size paper. 

  • US LETTER PAPER: Simply allow your printer to Print the file in the center with the ‘Actual Size’ option. It may warn you that there will be areas cut off, however since you are using 8.5x11” Paper, you won’t have to worry, since the width of these files is smaller at only 8”. 
 
  • A4 PAPER: Simply allow your printer to Print the file centered with the ‘Actual Size’ option. It may warn you that there will be areas cut off, however A4 Paper is 8.3x11.7” in size, so you won’t have to worry, since the width & height of these files is smaller at only 8x11”. 

IMPORTANT!! Make sure your printer is set to Print the ‘Actual Size’ setting in Adobe Reader. DO NOT print your items to ‘Fit’ to page or this can alter the look  & size of your printed files dramatically (Especially for Envelope Templates, as your Invitation will not fit inside.)


COLOUR VARIATIONS

The color that you see on your computer screen varies greatly from monitor to monitor. As such, there may be color variations from what you see on your screen to the printed product. Print quality and color also varies depending on which printer you use, the type of paper and printer settings.

Print at a Professional Print Store

You can save your Edited files to a USB Flash drive, and take them to be printed at your local professional print store that accepts PDF files.

WE RECOMMEND PRINTING AT THE FOLLOWING PRINT/COPY SHOPS:

  • Staples (but not online printing - see below)
  • Office Max
  • Office Depot
  • Fedex Kinkos
  • Insource (in Canada)
  • The UPS Store
  • Officeworks (in Australia)
 
YOU CANNOT PRINT AT THE FOLLOWING PLACES:

  • Photo shops/photo labs such as Kmart, Walmart, Walgreens, Costco, Target, CVS, Tesco etc – Our files are not JPG or photo files and cannot be printed as a photo.
  • Any professional printer that does not use Adobe Reader to print, or does not print PDF files.
 

!! You MUST make sure your professional printer is viewing your PDF files using Adobe Reader, otherwise your fonts may not appear/print correctly!!

If you are unsure of where to print, we recommend researching the professional printers who print PDF files in your local area, PRIOR to making a purchase.

Upload to an Online Printing Service

Save your edited PDF files to your computer hard drive and upload to an online printing service that prints PDF files such as FedEx Kinkos or Officeworks. We recommend you review the website's own guidelines for uploading and using their services.

WE RECOMMEND PRINTING AT THE FOLLOWING ONLINE PRINT/COPY STORES:
  • Fedex Kinkos
  • Fedex Online Printing
  • The UPS Store (Upload & pick up at your local store - US & Canada)
  • Officeworks (in Australia)
  • Online photo print shops such as Overnight Prints, Snapfish, Mpix, Shutterfly, Costco, Walmart, Walgreens etc.
  • Vistaprint
  • Staples & Office Depot Online Printing 

Please note that most of our digital files are formatted to 8x11" to suit both A4 and US Letter paper sizes, since we are an international seller.
​When uploading files, you may see a warning that the files are a different size, however do not worry, as 8x11" is smaller than both of these paper sizes, so no clipping of the digital images will occur, and you can proceed with printing without issue.
