FAQ

What is the difference between Kiss Cut and Die Cut?

Kiss cut is where the vinyl layer has been cut round the edge of your design but does not cut the backing paper therefore leaving multiple stickers on the same sheet. Die cut is where the backing paper is also cut to the same size as your sticker creating an individual sticker great for handing out.

What is Bleed?

Bleed is the part of your artwork that extends past the edge of the label. This is usually the background of your artwork and gets trimmed off when printing. We have bleed to make sure your labels have no white edges. This is to ensure the print is right to the edge of the label if there is any slight natural movement when printing. We require the background of your artwork to extend at least 3mm past the edge of the label to make up its bleed. Most design tools have the option to input your bleed when starting a new project. Other programs such as photoshop don’t have this feature, so you will need to make your artwork 3mm larger on each side manually.

The safe zone is the ‘no cross’ zone at the edge of the label. We recommend that you keep all text/borders/important stuff within the safe zone boundaries. This will ensure that nothing gets cut off during print. We have a safe zone to ensure nothing gets cut off when printing. If you had text going right to the edge of the label, there is a chance it will get trimmed off due to the natural movement when printing. The only part of your artwork that should cross this area should be the background. You should aim to keep any text, borders or important information at least 2.5mm away from the trim lines (edge of label).
