Artwork Best Practices

We all expect for products that we buy to look and work the same way no matter where we buy them. After all, quality is maintained when a product is made the same way every time.

That is where this guide, a distinct set of rules for the print design and packaging community, comes into play. The best practices outlined here lay out key issues, risks, and solutions to artwork tasks faced every day. 

The main goal of this guide is to establish rules regarding the standardization of PDF files, centralizing best practices to ease the overall artwork creation process. 

While all rules may not be applicable to each company, the core underlying principles, especially as they relate to the need for standardization, certainly do.
