Disclaimer for Canva Designs Submitted for Printing
-
Canva is a fantastic tool for creating professional-looking designs with ease. Its user-friendly interface and wide range of templates make it accessible to everyone. However, for printing purposes, there are specific requirements and limitations to keep in mind to ensure your design prints as intended.
1. Resolution Requirements
-
For clear and high-quality prints, all elements of your design must be at least 300 DPI (dots per inch).
-
Images or artwork below 300 DPI may appear blurry or pixelated when printed.
2. Digital vs. Print Resolution
-
Designs optimized for digital screens are often created in lower resolution for faster loading times.
-
For printing, high-resolution files are essential to maintain clarity and detail.
3. File Format Guidelines
-
When exporting your Canva design for printing, use PDF (preferred) or PNG format.
-
Ensure the following options are selected during export:
-
Crop Marks and Bleed
-
Flatten PDF
-
For corporate branding, export your file in a CMYK color profile to ensure more accurate color reproduction. Files exported in RGB will be auto-converted to CMYK, which may result in color variations.
4. Compatibility and Design Adjustments
-
Canva files are imported into our production design programs, which can sometimes cause alignment or text issues.
-
If the file becomes corrupted or requires adjustments to match the original design, design fees will apply for rework.
5. Responsibility Disclaimer
-
While we take every measure to ensure your design prints correctly, we cannot be held responsible for errors caused by issues in the original Canva file, such as:
-
Incorrect grammar or spelling.
-
Misalignment or formatting discrepancies.
-
Compatibility issues during import.
-
To avoid complications, we recommend double-checking your design for accuracy and clarity before submission.
