Custom Templates

Create your own greeting card templates; 4x6, 4x8 , 5x5, and 5x7 sizes available. Custom templates also include custom units to mix images you want printed on a single sheet; sizes include 4-4x5, 2-5x7’s, and 8-wallets (die cut).

When designing custom templates, it is important to leave ⅛" bleed on all sides. When using the template tool within ProlabExpress®, you will find a dotted yellow line around your image. The outside of the dotted line denotes the bleed area, or "out of bounds" area. Important parts of your image (text, faces, etc.) should remain inside the dotted yellow line. "Bleed" is necessary to compensate for variations in finishing, cutting, and trimming the final product. Important parts of your image may be cut off if bleed guidelines are not followed.

Available in Express Digital Output.

  • Files sized to 300 ppi, level 12 JPEG, or TIFF format (LZW only).
  • We recommend the sRGB color space.
  • All custom templates are individually cut with a standard ⅛" bleed from what is shown on your monitor.
  • Templates are not color corrected.
