Frequently Asked Questions
What are Bleed Marks?
Bleed is the extra area of artwork that extends beyond the final trim size of your printed piece. It allows images, colors, or backgrounds to run all the way to the edge without leaving an unwanted white border after trimming.
For best results, extend your artwork at least 1/8" (0.125") beyond the final cut line on all sides. Keep important text, logos, and other essential elements safely inside the trim area.
Example: If your finished piece is 8.5" × 11", your artwork should typically be set up at 8.75" × 11.25" to include the bleed.
What is your turn time?
Turnaround times vary depending on the
details of your project.
Quantity, size, paper or material, finishing options, binding, and the complexity of the job can
all affect production time.
Once we know what you need, we can provide an estimated turnaround time for your specific project. Rush services may be available for select projects—just ask!
Please note that turnaround begins once artwork is approved and all necessary information is received.

What's difference between CMYK and PMS?
CMYK and PMS are two different ways of creating colors for printing.
CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black)
CMYK uses four ink colors combined in different amounts to create a wide range of colors. It is commonly used for full-color printing, such as brochures, flyers, photos, postcards,
and business cards.
PMS (Pantone Matching System)
PMS uses specially formulated, standardized ink colors to achieve a specific, consistent color. PMS colors are often used when exact brand colors need to be matched, such as logos and corporate branding.
Keep in mind that colors can look different on a computer or phone screen than they do when printed. We can help determine the best color system for your project.
Can you Print Programs?
Yes, we can!
Create polished, professional programs with
saddle-stitch binding—a classic booklet style where printed pages are folded in half and secured with staples along the center fold.
Saddle-stitched programs are a great choice for weddings, graduations, church services, concerts, performances, conferences, and special events. They provide a clean, professional finish while making it easy to organize schedules, names, announcements, photos, and other event information.
Available in a variety of sizes, paper stocks, and finishes to fit your event and budget.

What's difference between Screen Print and Heat Press?
Screen Printing
Screen printing applies ink directly onto the garment through a mesh screen. It creates a durable, professional finish and is a great option for larger quantities with simple designs and solid colors.
Heat Press
Heat pressing uses heat and pressure to apply a printed or cut design onto the garment. It works well for smaller quantities, individual shirts, names and numbers, and detailed or multi-color designs.
Which one is right for your project?
The best method depends on your quantity, design, garment, colors, and budget.
We can help you choose the printing method
that fits your project.
