Delivery

Estimated delivery is 3–5 business days from design preview approval and print start date.
If finishing is included, add 1–3 extra business days.

We'll do our best to meet the estimated delivery date, but it may be delayed depending on our production schedule.

Estimated delivery is based on Korean business days. Delivery may be delayed due to public holidays or customs processing in the destination country.

Color

Here are some helpful tips about print colors.

1. Printed colors will appear darker and less vivid than on your monitor.

Printing uses CMYK ink mixing, which works differently from the RGB light on your screen. An exact match between monitor and print is technically not possible.

Files submitted in Spot Color or RGB mode will be automatically converted to CMYK. This conversion results in noticeable color shifts.

In gang-run printing, colors may print lighter or darker, and variation between C (Cyan), M (Magenta), Y (Yellow), and K (Black) channels is within normal range.

Even with the same file, color results vary depending on paper type and print timing. This does not constitute grounds for remake.
Gang-run printing processes multiple orders on a single press sheet, making precise color control structurally not possible.
Large areas of dark background color may show roller marks, resulting in uneven color.
The front and back sides will appear different in tone, even when the same color is used in the design file.
If exact color accuracy is essential, please provide a printed reference sample, place a dedicated-run order with press supervision, or contact our support team.
Gang-run products include: Business Cards, Hang Tags, Coupons, Leaflets, Square-Cut Stickers, Kiss-Cut Stickers, Standard Envelopes, and Flyers.

2. Colors with similar CMYK ratios or sensitive tones may print very differently.

Small differences in CMYK values can result in noticeably different printed colors. Color claims are evaluated based on your submitted file only, not the printed result.

Color deviation example: C=61%, M=52%, Y=52%, K=22%

When using sensitive colors with similar CMYK ratios — especially olive, gray, and brown tones — as a background on large areas, there is a very high chance of ink drift causing uneven, gradient-like variations within the same area.
In gang-run printing, multiple orders are placed on a single plate, so ink supply is affected by the color ratios of surrounding jobs. This same variation will occur even with reprints.
This is an inherent characteristic of gang-run printing and does not constitute a defect or grounds for remake.

3. K=100% black is processed with overprint enabled.

If you do not want overprint applied, add 1% of another color to the black, or set the value to K=99%.

< Overprint K=100% >

< Overprint Off >

< Rich Black (C=30% + M=30%) >

< Overprint Example >

4. Patterns and textures require sufficient contrast with the background.

We recommend at least 20–30% color difference from the background.

< Color difference 10% >

< Color difference 20% or more >

< Patterns & Textures >

5. Use caution with text and lines made of mixed CMYK colors.

Slight misregistration between color plates may cause colors to spread or shift. This is more noticeable with thinner text and lines.
On dark backgrounds made of mixed CMYK colors, misregistration can cause thin elements to break up or disappear entirely.
For black text and lines, use pure black (K=100%) only. Do not use a mix of CMYK colors.
Even in a single color, extremely thin text or lines may not reproduce clearly in print.

6. Total CMYK ink coverage should be kept below 250%.

Higher ink density increases the risk of set-off (wet ink transferring onto adjacent sheets).
Pages may stick together, or ink may peel away from the surface.
For deeper tones, increase the K (Black) percentage rather than raising CMY values.
Depending on paper type and printing method, set-off can occur even below 250%.
Very high ink density may result in muddy dark tones or visible roller marks.

7. White ink printing is not fully opaque.

On transparent materials, show-through occurs in white ink printing. This is within normal range.

Finishing — Die-Cut

Please note the following for die-cutting.

When the die line shape is very complex

Due to technical limitations in die production, the die line may be modified within feasible limits. Modified die lines are not eligible for rework, claims, or refunds.
Modifications may be more significant for sizes 50×50mm (1.969×1.969 inch) or smaller.
Modified die lines cannot be provided in advance. (Pre-approval is available for dedicated-run orders.)

Die Line

Die-Cut Tolerance

A tolerance of ±1–2mm (0.039–0.079 inch) is considered standard in the industry.

For smooth rounded corners

We recommend a corner radius of at least 4mm (0.157 inch).

Quality Inspection (Peel Test)

After die-cutting, random samples are selected from the production run for peel testing.

PASS - If the backing paper separates cleanly in at least one direction, the product is deemed acceptable.
FAIL - Only when the backing paper tears in all directions is the product deemed defective, and the entire production run is reworked.

※ Minor variations due to blade depth may occur, but as long as the backing separates cleanly in one direction, the product is fully usable.

Adhesion Strength

Important information regarding sticker adhesion.

Adhesion performance varies by environment.

Sticker adhesion depends not only on the material manufacturer's specifications, but also on the surface material, temperature, humidity, and other environmental conditions of the application.
Even with the same material, adhesion properties may change over time after application. Please choose the appropriate material for your intended use.

We recommend testing with a small order instead of sample books.

Since adhesion performance changes over time, testing with an actual production run is more accurate than using sample books that may have been produced long ago.
Our production costs are reasonable, so we recommend placing a minimum quantity order to test in your actual environment before committing to a large run.

Important notice for bulk orders

Adhesion-related issues for bulk orders placed without prior testing are not eligible for exchange or refund.

Trimming

Important information for sticker trimming.

General

Large quantities are trimmed at once, which may cause slippage. A tolerance of ±1–3mm is considered standard in the industry.
Keep important content at least 3mm inside the die line on all sides.
Borders and symmetrical designs may not be trimmed evenly.
Slippage may cause slight diagonal cuts.

Standard Cut

The product may be trimmed with trim marks visible, or trimmed arbitrarily within the non-cut area.
Multiple stickers may remain connected on a single sheet.
If you need individually separated stickers, please select Exact-Size Cut.

Quantity

Quantity information for gang-run printing.

With gang-run printing, small quantity shortages can happen — most of the time we keep it within 5%. In rare cases, depending on production conditions like the ink density of other orders running at the same time, shortages of around 10% may occur.

If a significant shortage occurs, please contact us through our 1:1 inquiry.

Gang-run products include: Business Cards, Hang Tags, Coupons, Leaflets, Square-Cut Stickers, Kiss-Cut Stickers, Standard Envelopes, and Flyers.
If finishing is included, additional waste sheets are generated, which may result in a larger shortage.
If you require an exact quantity, please use dedicated-run printing.

InDesign

Size Setup

Select New and set the size for your print product. Set the page size to the trim size, and set the bleed in the Bleed section.

File → New → Document (Ctrl+N)
