Follow these simple steps to prepare your Placemat for print:
- Choose Placemat size
To design and prepare your Placemat for print with Cloudprinter.com, first of all, you'll have to choose the size available on our website. You may opt for round or rectangular shape. - Set Placemat bleeds
The next step is setting the bleed areas at each side of your Placemat to make sure all important information is kept safe. For this, simply add 3 mm (0.125 in) at each side of the Placemat. Make sure your information is within the bleed limits; colors, background images and the layout of your Placemat design extend to the bleeds area as well, so that there are no extra edges after cutting your Placemat. We also recommend avoiding placing text or important information inside of the safe zone — the 3 mm (0.125 in) inside of the cutting edge in order not to be clipped when producing your Placemat. This way, you won't lose any data while you design your Placemat. - Prepare Placemat file for printing
- Set 300 DPI resolution;

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