Design for Print FAQ’s
What is 'Design for Print' at Birch?
Our Design for Print service turns your ideas into print-ready artwork while keeping your brand front and centre. We adapt to your needs, whether you’re starting from scratch or just making tweaks, and work across all types of print and branded materials — from marketing collateral and event materials to merchandise, signage, packaging, and uniforms. Every design is visually engaging, aligned with your brand guidelines, and fully ready for production.
What makes Birch Design for Print services unique?
Our approach prioritises print from the very start, rather than adapting digital designs afterwards. Every project is handled with technical expertise, ensuring your materials are print-ready, brand-compliant, and production-ready. Whether creating new artwork or refining existing designs, we deliver solutions that perform reliably across all types of print and branded materials.
What file formats do you accept?
Our preferred format is a high-resolution, print-ready PDF.
We can also work with:
– Vector files: Ai (Adobe Illustrator), EPS, SVG
– Page-layout files: InDesign (.indd, .idml)
– Raster images: TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PSD (Photoshop)
– Office files: Word, Excel, PowerPoint — while these are not print-ready, our in-house studio can usually convert them into print-ready artwork
For best results, please:
– Include the correct bleed for your product (typically 3 mm for small format, 10–25 mm for large format)
– Outline or embed all fonts, and supply any linked files if providing Illustrator or InDesign packages
Do you charge for proofs?
Standard PDF proofs are free of charge. If you would like a printed proof, we can tailor it to what matters most to you, whether that is checking the paper stock, colour accuracy or finish. A charge will apply for printed proofs.
Can you redesign existing print materials?
Yes. We can update your existing print materials in whatever way you need, from subtle tweaks to a full redesign. We align the design with the purpose of your materials to ensure they are on-brand, print-ready and support your goals, helping you communicate more clearly and make a stronger impact.
How do you ensure print colours match my brand guidelines?
We follow a thorough pre-flight process, using the correct colour spaces such as FOGRA39 for coated stock and FOGRA27 for uncoated stock, and referencing existing or previous artwork for consistency. CMYK and Pantone values are checked carefully to maintain brand colour accuracy. Our QA system and ongoing monitoring of supplier performance ensure the final print reflects these meticulous checks across all materials.
Can you handle urgent design requests?
Absolutely. Every project we take on is approached with a “time is of the essence” mindset. Provide us with an overview and a deadline, and we’ll let you know what’s achievable. Many clients comment on the speed of our design work, so it’s highly likely you will not be left disappointed.
Will I have a chance to review and approve designs before printing?
Yes. We provide digital proofs and, where needed, physical samples so you can review your designs and request adjustments before final print production. This ensures your materials are on-brand, accurate, and aligned with your goals before they go to print.
What if I don’t have a clear idea of what I want?
No problem. Our in-house design team can guide you from the very beginning, developing concepts and visuals based on your goals, audience, and brand. We provide digital proofs and, if needed, physical samples so you can review and refine the designs before anything goes to print.
Are your designs optimised for both digital and print use?
Our designs are created with print as the priority, ensuring the correct resolution, colour fidelity and layout for production. Where needed, we can also provide digital-ready files optimised for online or screen use, giving you flexible, multi-channel materials.
Can you design for specialty print finishes like foil stamping or embossing?
Yes. We have experience designing for a wide range of specialty print finishes, including foil blocking (traditional and digital), embossing and debossing, spot UV (traditional and digital), thermography, scratch-off latex, die-cutting, and selective white on clear. We ensure designs are set up correctly for each technique and provide guidance to achieve the desired effect while keeping your materials print-ready and on-brand.
How do you handle large format print design like banners and signage?
We create high-resolution, scalable artwork specifically for large format print, including banners, signage and exhibition graphics. Our designs maintain visual clarity, correct proportions, and colour accuracy at scale, ensuring your materials are impactful and print-ready.
What file delivery options do you offer after design completion?
We provide final designs in the formats you need, whether for print or digital use. Files can be delivered via secure download, email, or we can manage the print and fulfilment for you, giving you a hassle-free handover.
