Common mistakes to avoid
- •Submitting PDF, JPG, or PNG files instead of CorelDRAW (.cdr) — only CDR is accepted for print-ready artwork.
- •Text or important elements placed outside the safe area, risking being trimmed off.
- •Fonts not converted to curves, causing missing fonts to break the layout at print time.
- •Missing a required slot (e.g. uploading only the front when back artwork is also required).
- •Using rich black (mixing all 4 colors) instead of the recommended black mix, causing shade variation.
