Flag Printing Design Tips

Get your Flag size right

You can design your flag at actual size or to scale, depending on the software you use. Ensure that your final print file will scale up in proportion to the size of flag you have ordered.

Allow for Eyelets and/or Pole Pockets in your design

Ensure that no critical information is within 50mm of the edge of your flag design, this allows room for eyelets, hems and other finishing options. Background images and graphics are fine, just be wary of text, numbers and logos.

Your artwork should be set to CMYK

Set your artwork to CMYK, as this matches the dye-sublimation print process. If your artwork is in RGB mode, the colours may not come out as expected.

Colour Matching

Colour matching to Pantone references is possible, but may take longer and will incur an extra charge. Files including pantone colours will be converted to CMYK unless you specify a colour match in your order.

Design Principles

Flags are first and foremost an advertising and communication medium. Information displayed should be clear to read – consider how far away your target audience will be. If your flag is intended to be viewed from a distance then the contrast should be high and typefaces need to be legible. If you try to cram too much information onto a flag then the text may end up too small to read!
