Artwork Information

No good at graphic design, can’t be bothered making your own artwork or just sick of other companies charging ridiculous artwork fees? Or is the info here just mumbo jumbo? Don’t worry, we have you covered. We offer a free artwork service with every order. Simply place your order and when we ask for artwork tell us to design it for you.

Even if we have to make it totally from scratch we'll do it because we want to make your magnets look ****ing awesome. Easy peasy for you, tons of fun for us.

If you don't have a magnet design but have a logo, other image or information you'd like us to include in the design, send us that and we'll incorporate it into your artwork.

If you have an already existing design and just want a few changes made, that's cool too. Send it through and we'll handle it. Just part of the Amazing Customer Service experience we want to provide.

Remember, we won't make your magnets until you are 100% happy and approve your proof.

We have been told on many occasions that our designers aren't good… because they are freaking amazing. They are at your disposal. Use them. Don't be shy!

If you're more of a DIY person or already have artwork available, go for it, but please see our recommended artwork specs below.

FONT INFORMATION

Fonts are the various styles of text you can use on your artwork to display information. For the best end product and to ensure your magnets come out the way you want them to, you should:

  • Package all fonts used in your artwork with the artwork file you submit. If you don't do this your artwork may display a different font on our end.
  • Ensure that all fonts aren't smaller than 6pt. Any smaller than this can make them hard to read.
  • Make sure that your fonts don't have a stroke thickness of less than 0.4pt.

RESOLUTION INFORMATION

The Resolution of your artwork defines how sharp or blurry or pixelated your artwork will appear when printed. Image resolution is measured in pixels on a computer but dpi (dots per square inch) is used in printing. To ensure The best results all artwork provided should be a minimum of 300dpi.

NOTE: If you intend to order a larger sized magnet, a higher dpi will ensure that your artwork does not become blurry when printed. The higher the dpi the better appearance your image will have when printed.

FILE FORMAT INFORMATION

Artwork can be submitted in a variety of file formats. Below is a list of the types of files we can accept.

  • ,pdf
  • .ai
  • .svg

If you do not have artwork in these formats, that's cool. We also accept .jpg, .bmp, .png, .gif, .psd, .ps, .tiff, .eps.

If you can't find any artwork in these formats please try contacting your graphic designer, tech wizard or marketing manager and see if they can help. If not, don’t stress. Just let us know and we will do our best to help you out.

COLOR MODE INFORMATION

Colour Mode refers to the system that is used to define the colour in your artwork. The three major colour modes are CMYK, RGB and PMS. CMYK is the colour mode we employ because it can produce full coloured artworks quickly, ensuring fastest turnaround time and amazing quality. RGB colour can't be used for printing and is most commonly used on TV and computer screens. PMS can be used for printing but can be a slow, expensive and time consuming process. It is most commonly used in painting.

For the best quality product please convert your artwork to CMYK before sending it to us or alternatively let us know the CMYK values of your artwork.
