DL can mean two different things in printing! One is a flyer, the other is an envelope. Same name, different game!
A little spin on the subject of DL! 😎

Ever struggled to peel the backing off a label or sticker?
Here’s a little printing trick that makes life easier!
Ask your printer about split-back labels. That little slit in the backing paper makes peeling so much easier.
And if your labels don’t have one, I’ll show you a little workaround.
It’s the small details that make a big difference!

Not all artwork needs bleed!
Sometimes, a clever white frame can give busy artwork some breathing room while helping white text stand out.
Good design isn’t always about printing to the edge. Sometimes, the white space is doing the work.

Let’s talk BLEED!
Designers, remember to think outside the box. 😉

A customer came into the print shop looking for short-grain A4 paper, which can be difficult to find.
The solution? Start with long-grain A3 paper and cut it in half.
The cut doesn’t change the grain direction itself. It changes the size and orientation of the sheet relative to the grain. The grain that ran parallel to the 420mm edge of the A3 now runs parallel to the 210mm edge of the A4, making it short grain.
The bonus? One ream of long-grain A3 gives you two reams of short-grain A4 😄

Designing a booklet? Don’t forget the bleed!
If your artwork has colour or images running right to the edge of the page, you need to include bleed. Without it, you risk unwanted white edges when your booklet is trimmed.
And with booklets, there’s also trim marks and creep to consider!
A little preparation in your artwork makes a big difference to the finished print.

Did you know you can type a maths equation straight into a number field?
Instead of reaching for your calculator, just type 297/2 and let the software do the maths for you!
Such a simple little trick, but it can save you time every day.
Try it next time you’re working on your computer!

I don’t actually print to the edge of the page.
Sounds wrong… right?
The trick is, I print onto a slightly oversized sheet first, then guillotine it down to a perfect A4.
That gives me a clean, precise edge every time — without relying on the printer to somehow print perfectly to the edge.

Cool Christmas Card.
No blank cards. No laminating. No mucking around.
For these cards, we print directly onto Shimmer Coat stock — glossy on one side, uncoated on the other — then fold and finish them ready to go.
And yep, the same idea works for birthday cards, gift cards and other custom cards too.
Printed locally in Shellharbour for businesses, events and anyone who needs a few cards (or a few hundred!).
