Calendar Printing

Calendars give you a lot of bang for your marketing buck. They’re attractive, and everybody needs one. Best of all, they hang on your customer’s wall all year as a daily reminder of your company and your product or service. Calendars are also great for fundraising and as giveaways to employees or clients. Use the photo pages to highlight your company, or add beautiful pictures they’ll enjoy hanging on their walls. As printing experts, we’ll create calendars that last all year on heavy stock with gloss coating.

How to Save Your Files for Booklets

To ensure the best print results for booklet products, follow these file setup guidelines when preparing your artwork:

File Setup Checklist

Important Notes

• Submit files as single pages in reading order (Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, etc.)
• Do not submit printer spreads unless specifically requested

• Extend background artwork .125 inch past trim on all sides
• Keep important text at least .25 inch inside the trim edge

Why This Matters

Booklets must be imposed correctly for folding and binding. Providing pages in reading order allows us to prepare the layout properly and prevents pagination errors. Call 877-613-1913 if you need help setting it up.
