Step Two

Check that you have guides turned on. You should see lines around the outside of your template.

View > Show > Guides.

Drag 4 guides from the rulers on the left and the top of your photoshop screen and place them over our template where shown. (This way you can turn off the layer we have provided showing the guide positions)

The outermost lines are called cut lines. The cut lines show where your design will be cut away from the much larger sheet of paper it was printed on. This ensures color all the way to the very edge of your cards. This method is called full bleed.

TIP:- Your background colors/design MUST extend past the cut lines!

The innermost lines are called the safety lines. Anything outside these lines could be cut off. Although our cutters are very accurate, staying inside of this area ensures that important text/graphics won't be chopped off. It also helps your design to be more readable. Keep all your non-background text, logos, pictures, etc. inside of these lines.

TIP:- Check that your design is in CMYK color mode and at 300dpi or 400 dpi resolution.

Check like this ... Image > Mode > CMYK
Image > Image Size > Resolution: 300 pixels/inch

Step Three

Now you are ready to begin designing your card.

Step Four

Delete all of our redundant help layers before you save the file

Step Five

Save it as a TIFF file, PSD or print it to Adobe distiller to create a pdf

TIP:- If you save to a pdf, make sure you have included any fonts you need to make it look right

TIP:- Remember to create separate files for each side of your business card if you wish to have printing on the back.
