Remove before export
Delete crop marks, fold marks and colour control bars before exporting. Your file is centred automatically on the sheet; these marks can actually interfere with processing.
What really matters
Rather than marks, it is a properly set bleed and safety zone that guarantee a clean cut. Focus on those two things.
Check before you send
- No crop marks in the PDF
- No printed fold marks
- No colour control bar
- Bleed and safety zone set correctly
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to add registration marks?
No, centring and cutting are handled automatically from your file’s dimensions.
Not sure about your file?
Our AI assistant checks your file and flags anything that needs adjusting, and can even create your print-ready artwork, bleed included. Nothing goes to press without your approval.
