Preparing Bill Book Artwork Guide

Preparing artwork for a bill book (or receipt book) requires correct bleed, safe zone spacing, and numbering placement. Follow this guide to submit print-ready files that match your required finishing and output.

How to prepare Bill Book artwork correctly for printing

Bleed size: Add 4mm bleed on all sides. Example: If your order size is 210mm × 297mm, the bleed size must be 214mm × 301mm.

Bill Book artwork guide - bleed and safe zone

Important

  • Extend background design to the edge of the full bleed.
  • Keep vital elements inside the safe zone (at least 7mm away from all sides of the full bleed edge).
  • Delete unneeded template elements (e.g., remove numbering if not required).
  • Hole punching is only available on the LEFT side for documents with a length of 100mm and above.

Numbering

  • Mark numbering using the numbering format shown in the Product Size Templates.
  • Numbering will be printed in RED.
  • Provide the numbering sequence during the ordering process (textbox). The last digit must start with 1. Examples: 0001, 00001, 00501, 0301, 201.
  • To indicate numbering placement in your artwork, use the dummy numbering provided in the product size template.

FAQ

  • What is bleed? Extra area beyond the final size to avoid white edges after trimming.
  • What is the safe zone? Area where important text/logo should stay to avoid cutting off.
  • Do I need numbering in the artwork? Use dummy numbering to mark position; provide actual sequence in the order form.
