Dieline / Template
Dielines are used to assist graphic designers prepare artwork for any print jobs that require die cutting. Dielines aren’t printed, and should be placed on a separate layer in the design file. They’re mainly used to assist designers setting up the artwork and placement of design elements.
If you’re after something other than a standard credit card size plastic card, then check out our library of different plastic card templates available. Or talk to us about creating a custom shape plastic card for your next project.
Bleed
Bleed refers to the artwork that extends beyond the finished size (or trim). If there are elements in your design that you want to be printed at the edge of your plastic card, then the element should be extended past the trim line and into the bleed area. For most our plastic and paper printing products, we suggest a 3mm bleed.
Type
Our plastic card order allows you to choose between 3 types of plastic cards: gloss, matt and frosted. Please contact us for orders and pricing for other plastic card types (including recycled, black core and more).
