The best file formats for printing are typically PDF or TIFF, saved with CMYK color mode and high resolution (usually 300 DPI). These formats ensure that your design looks sharp, accurate, and professional when printed.
Recommended formats:
PDF (Portable Document Format): Ideal for layouts, brochures, and anything with text and vector graphics. Preserves fonts, layers, and color profiles.
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format): Best for high-quality images or photography prints. Supports lossless compression and CMYK color.
EPS (Encapsulated PostScript): Good for logos or illustrations that need to be scaled without losing quality.
Key considerations:
Always convert colors from RGB to CMYK for accurate color printing.
Set the resolution to 300 DPI for crisp and clear output.
Embed fonts or convert them to outlines to prevent font issues.
