FONT
There are SO many choices when it comes to fonts. When designing a printed piece the possibilities seem endless. Stick with bold and simple fonts when creating anything that is copy heavy. One rule of thumb is to never go below 8pt. Anything below 8pt will be difficult to read.
MARGINS
One common mistake when it comes to designing printed marketing material is having elements close to the edge. We recommend keeping all text at least .25” from the edge to ensure it doesn’t get cut off in the trimming process.
COLOR
Color is another huge choice when it comes to designing. Contrast is key when you want your information and brand to stand out among the rest. Stay away from using colors that are similar in hues in order for the elements to be easy to distinguish from each other.
