How this file has to be built

Bleed 0.125" · safety 0.125"

Backgrounds run 0.125" past the cut line so trimming never opens a white sliver; anything that must survive stays 0.125" inside it. The studio canvas is the cut line itself — magenta edge — and the dashed guide inside it is the safety margin.

150 DPI at final size

Large format is read from a distance, so 150 DPI in size is the honest number — more is wasted file, not sharper print. Printed on one side.

Keep 2" clear of the edge

Grommets, pole pockets, hems and frame lips all eat the border. Type that close is hidden by the hardware, not by the press.

• · Hemming folds roughly 1 in of every edge back — keep artwork 2 in inside.
• · Fabric ink sinks in slightly: solids read a touch softer than on vinyl, and hairlines below 1 pt close up.
• · Blockout fabric is the option that stops the table showing through a light design.
