subject: Tips To Creating Customized Koozies [print this page] This particular how to article, we are going to explain the simplest way to produce your own design and artwork for your customized koozies. We will be talking for the most part about a typical foam sleeve, that is created to fit on a 12 ounce can.
The typical imprinting region on foam koozies is usually 3 1/4" (h) x 3 1/4 for a single side. You will need to make sure that if you are writing text and or uploading artwork it will be able to fit in this area. You can also include your own design to the backside as well should you desire.
When designing artwork for the imprinted koozies, do not submit art which has jagged edges or has shade and colours in it. It is usually best to use just black and white coloring. Just like any form of screen printing, if you have the ability to create your file utilizing Adobe Illustrator and submit a.ai file that will be the best. However, in the event you cannot submit an.ai, you have to make sure to use a true.TIF or.BMP file and many businesses permit Corel Draw files.cd. If you are unsure, you can always submit your artwork before ordering to determine if it is suitable.
It is crucial that you do not simply take pictures from the internet such as files from clipart galleries. These have a extremely low resolution and won't work on your imprinted koozies. Nearly all online stores will have artwork created that one could pick from, and some may have the ability to take a sketching you did and create it within Adobe Illustrator. There will obviously end up being an additional charge, but perhaps worth it for you.
What we like to do before we start to actually layout our artwork, is hand draw the particular design on a blank piece of white paper. You can use a ruler and mark the precise dimensions that you will need. You can also create an image in your graphic program, with the size dimensions, and then expand it and keep proportions. It is typically easier for a company to reduce the image than to increase the size of it. Enlarging it can cause distortion and jagged edges amongst a number of other things.
Once you have your design ready, you can then go to the Koozies web site and place your order. Hopefully you will have previously made the decision upon the colour schemes and how many you want. In most instances if there are any issues with the actual artwork you will receive an email or phone call. As you can tell, it is not very hard to get your own imprinted koozies.
