How do I upload files and artwork?

When you have successfully transferred your artwork onto your custom dieline template (.AI or .PDF), you can send your files via email to your Product Specialist for our Pre-press Team to review.

Note: For larger files that cannot be sent via email, you may upload your files to WeTransfer, Google Drive, or Dropbox and provide the download link to your Product Specialist.

Our Pre-press Team will review your artwork thoroughly for any concerns and will send you a 2D proof outlining any errors they may find. Unfortunately, PakFactory is not subject to fixing these errors for you. However, we are more than happy to help guide you through the fixes.

Note: Non-technical concerns such as spelling errors, RGB or PMS-to-CMYK color shifts, and atypical design orientation are not reviewed in our proofing process.
