Artwork Specifications

Artwork Requirements

To ensure your custom labels print clean, sharp, and professional, artwork must be properly prepared. Print quality is directly impacted by the quality of the files provided.

  • Recommended resolution: 300–400 DPI
  • High-resolution, final artwork only
  • Low-resolution files will print blurry or pixelated

Zoom in to 300%. If edges remain smooth, your file is acceptable.

If edges appear jagged or fuzzy, the resolution is too low for print.

Because our bottles are round, only about 2.75 inches of the label is visible at one time.

For best results:

  • Keep logos bold and easy to recognize
  • Avoid small text and fine details
  • Prioritize clarity over complexity

Good Artwork

  • 300+ DPI
  • Clean, sharp edges
  • Simple layouts with strong contrast
  • Logos sized for curved bottles
  • Print-ready and professional

Poor Artwork

  • Low-resolution or web images
  • Pixelated or blurry edges
  • Small text or thin lines
  • Overly detailed designs
  • May print blurry or unclear

Not sure if your artwork is ready?

Our team is happy to review files before printing.

Our customers typically fall into one of two categories: those with a graphics department and those without. We’re happy to work with both. The information below outlines what’s needed in each case.

Graphics Designers

Acceptable artwork file formats for COMPLETED artwork: Adobe Illustrator (Mac), PDF, JPEG, TIFF, or Quark XPress (Mac)

For $80 Water Specialties will put together your artwork for you. To do so we will need you to e-mail us your logo, photos, text, and a detailed description of what you expect to see on your label proof. Please send your logo and photos as JPEG, TIFF, Photo Shop, or PDF files. Sorry, no Word or Office files please.
