How should I choose a bookmark size?Choose a finished size based on the amount of information, the book or publication where it will be used, and whether the piece should feel compact, traditional or more like a reference card.
Should artwork be Horizontal or Vertical?Use only the orientations listed in Specifications. Template filenames use the actual artwork dimensions, so Horizontal and Vertical versions of the same nominal size have different width-by-height filenames.
How do I choose Paper / Stock?Compare stiffness, surface sheen, writeability, tactile feel, durability and compatibility with the selected specialty effect or intended handling.
What does Hole Drilling change?Hole Drilling adds the selected opening but does not change the outside bookmark dimensions, so it does not create a separate size template.
Which template should I use?Use the exact size, orientation and four-corner template matching the order. Do not use a rounded template for Square Corners or substitute Horizontal artwork for Vertical.
Can I provide artwork later?Yes. Choose Provide Artwork Separately, or Request Design Assistance if the file still needs design, cleanup, resizing, cutline setup or specialty-mask preparation.
How fast can bookmarks be produced?Use the Turnaround choices shown in Specifications. Eligibility depends on the complete stock, finishing and artwork configuration.
Does turnaround include shipping?No. Production turnaround and shipping, delivery or pickup timing are separate and should both be planned for the required in-hand date.
