How to deliver print files?

PurePack will try to ensure that you receive the best possible final result. Part of this means making sure print files are delivered well. This is why we have drawn up a number of important points of attention for the delivery. In addition to general points, we have also described a number of specifications for each product 

General

PurePack works with different parties and suppliers and therefore offers various printing techniques

Good to know:

✓ PurePack does not check if the formatting of graphic aspects is correct. Either the client or the designer is responsible for the supplied file.

✓ PurePack does not check for spelling errors and will not make adjustments to supplied files. Experience has taught us that this can lead to unnecessary mistakes, delays or waste of resources.

✓ A few tips: check for spelling errors, printing on non-visible parts, colour changes and overprint before sending in the file.

Sample drawings

We provide a die-cut drawing for most products:

✓ Create the design in the die-cut drawing, without modifications, and do not remove anything from the original die-cut drawing.

✓ Save parts that will not be printed in other spot colours and in separate layers. For example, a transparent window or a varnish or primer layer. This way, we prevent them from being printed.    

Delivery of files

Below you will find an overview of how the print files should be delivered to ensure that the printed files are of the best quality and meet your expectations. This way we avoid unnecessary loss of time, mistakes and waste of resources.

Printing is a sensitive process. This means we might ask you to change something in the design, despite the specifications below. We do this in order to create the best possible final result.
