LabPrints Ordering Guidelines
Please familiarize yourself with these guidelines before submitting LabPrints orders, especially template orders.
Fonts
Always order template prints the same size as the template, especially if your template includes text. You may change a template's dimensions when first opening an empty template in Template Designer. (LabPrints is working to correct this "bug".)
Images and Image File Formats
LabPrints supports JPEG and TIFF image file formats. We encourage you to use JPEG images because this significantly reduces your job upload time (by 3 - 5X), and results in no visible print quality differences compared to TIFF. However, when working an image in Photoshop, make your intermediate saves as TIFF or PSD. LabPrints does not support 16 bit TIFFs.
LabPrints Job File Size
Complex, multiple page template jobs can be very large. We suggest that you create separate LabPrints Lab Orders when the total size of images in a job exceeds 500 - 1,000 MB. Create a new LabPrints Lab Order by clicking the New Order button under the Invoice tab. Also, jobs exceeding 500 MB should be sent to the lab on CD, not uploaded.
Composite Borders
Thin borders ( < 5 pixels) at the very edge of the print may be clipped during printing. If an image must include an edge border it should be at least 15 pixels wide so that any potential clipping will not be visible.
