Art Specs and Templates

Art Specs

We prefer vector based artwork when possible such as .eps, .ai and .pdf files. When supplying vector files please make sure all fonts are converted to outlines. (In Adobe Illustrator: Type > Create Outlines)

We also accept .jpg images as well as .psd files. Please make sure your files are high resolution (300dpi) and at least 10cm square.

Photographic artwork should be supplied in CMYK format if possible.

Please note: Microsoft Word and PowerPoint documents are not acceptable.

The maximum acceptable file size for your artwork is 15MB.

If you would like to add text on your picks, but do not have graphic software to do so, please choose a font from this website: www.dafont.com and let us know what you'd like written in the 'Extra Order Details' text box when ordering.

If you require specific PMS colours please also provide these in the 'Extra Order Details' box.

If you're unsure, simply upload what you have and we will be in contact if needed. We have processed thousands of orders over the years so we have a pretty good idea of what works and what doesn’t.

Your original artwork and instructions stay attached for human review. Placement and single-ink previews are optional visual aids. Photos, complex artwork and files that cannot be previewed go through human artwork review. Using Pick Placement does not require a separate customer proof. The 10 Custom Guitar Picks - Full Colour offer prints as submitted without a separate proof or revision stage.

If you need further details after reading this page please contact us.
