*While preparing your file for print, you’ll have to exclude the bleeds layer.

Follow these simple steps to design and prepare your Pillow for print:

  1. Choose Pillow size
    Choose the needed size from available Pillow sizes and read the specifications in your dashboard. Currently, there are two available sizes with more options coming soon — 45x45 cm FC (17.717x17.717 in) and 40x40 cm FC (15.748x15.748 in). 
  2. Set bleeds
    Don't forget to add 20 mm (0.39 in) bleeds at each side of your Pillow to make sure you don't lose any part of your design.
  3. Select a picture 

    You can choose to print the whole Pillow area or select a smaller picture within the limits of the Pillow size. 

    You can also order a pillow with single or double-sided print.
  4. Prepare the file for printing

       - Set 300 DPI resolution
       - Choose RGB print
       - Save the file in PDF/X-4

Well done! Now you can print your Pillow all over the world as close to the delivery destination as possible.
