1. Illustrator vector files are the preferred format for graphics and allow the most flexibility for sizing files without loss of quality.

B. IMAGE RESOLUTION

1. .JPG .BMP .GIF are formats typically formatted for web graphics.
2. These can only be accepted if the resolution is as follows:

The photo resolution must be a minimum of 700dpi at 25%scale for high end printing and a minimum of 300dpi at 25% scale for low resolution printing.

3. All images and scans must be supplied or embedded in file.

C. COLOUR MATCHING & COLOUR MODE

1. Use Pantone Coated colors in the Color critical files and be specified at time of upload so that  the closest match is achievable.

T1. 标签、印花和贴纸，它们有什么不同？

“贴纸”、“印花”和“标签”有时候会互换使用。如果您还在犹豫是该选择标签、贴纸还是印花，我们列出了帮您做出正确选择的6条有用建议。为了简化使用，我们在这里统一使用“标签”。

1.  地点 - 标签会暴露在天气中还是会被应用于室内？
2. 温度 - 标签会被放置于寒冷的室内吗？还是说接触表面高于80摄氏度？
3. 表面状况 - 光滑表面，例如玻璃、不锈钢表面会提供理想的粘合强度。我们不推荐您将标签置于像是水泥墙或是木制等粗糙表面。
4. 化学接触 - 有些材料耐化学物腐蚀，而有些则不是。
5. 颜色注意事项 - 您是需求单色定制标签、几种基本颜色，还是要在标签上印刷全彩设计？
6. 尺寸 - 您需要用于车窗的小型定制标签还是和墙面一样大的尺寸？ 通过这些有用的提醒，您将获得定制标签的准确报价。

T2. 为什么会有粘合失效的情况？

一些原因会造成粘合失效：

1. 低温
2. 接触面积不足
3. 表面兼容性差
4. 黏贴时施加压力不足
5. 表面污染
6. 胶带使用错误

为了解决这些问题，需要确定可能的原因，并参照基本应用原则来确保胶带性能良好，从而改善这种情况。所以请记住，清洁干燥的表面、室温、压力和正确使用足量胶带将确保标签粘合得当。
