Button Badges Artwork Guide

We will be using your artwork to fill your order - and of course the badges can only be as good as any artwork supplied. Remember the finished badge is one inch in diameter (25mm) and circular so make sure your artwork takes this into account. Very intricate designs or too many words are not usually a good idea.

If we feel that the supplied artwork is unsuitable for a button badge or is of too poor quality, we will inform you and try to offer suggestions to improve it. If we are unable to use your artwork we will offer you a refund rather than produce badges you won't be happy with.

TOP TIP: Do not draw your own circle around your design - unless you want a circle to appear on your finished badges that is. We use cutters to cut the exact size and have our own templates to work from. If you want to draw a circle as a guide send us two versions of the design - one with the circle and one without.

Please also bear in mind that although we do our best to match colours, the printing process will inevitably slightly alter some colours. And what a colour looks like on a brightly lit computer screen won't be exactly the same on a button badge anyway.

How do I send you my artwork?
You can send your artwork to us by email or by post. Email is best - it's quick and easy for both you and us.

If e-mailing your artwork please follow these instructions:
  • if possible make sure your artwork is two to three inches in diameter (5-8cm) so that we can reduce it to the exact size required for button badges. Please don't e-mail very large pieces of artwork.
  • please send your artwork in .psd (Photoshop), .ai (Adobe Illustrator), .pdf, .tif or .eps format, but can work from .jpgs, Word files, paint shop (.psp) and more.. If you don't have your artwork in the aboveformats, don't worry. Send what you have. We can work with Word documents for example and also use both Photoshop and Paintshop.
  • please ensure your artwork is formatted for a PC - we do not use Macs.
  • if you are scanning artwork to send us it will look best at 600dpi (300dpi minimum).
If sending your artwork on a floppy disk or a CD-R:
  • if possible make sure your artwork is two to three inches in diameter (5-8cm) so that we can reduce it to the exact size required for button badges.
  • please send your artwork in .psd (Photoshop), .ai (Adobe Illustrator), .pdf, .tif or .eps format, but can work from .jpgs, Word files, paint shop (.psp) and more.. If you don't have your artwork in the aboveformats, don't worry. Send what you have. We can work with Word documents for example and also use both Photoshop and Paintshop.
  • please ensure your artwork is formatted for a PC - we do not use Macs.
  • if you are scanning artwork it will look best at 600dpi (300dpi minimum).
If sending your artwork on paper:
  • we can produce button badges from letterheads, leaflets and artwork on paper, but again the better the quality the artwork the better your button badges will look.
  • if you are printing out artwork as opposed to sending it on a disc or CD-R, please ensure that you are using the best quality setting available and also use high quality WHITE art paper if at all possible. Better still, just email the design as above.
  • please ensure that your artwork is protected by stiff card and that the envelope is clearly marked "do not bend".
You can send discs and artwork by post to:

I don't have any artwork - can you help?
If you want something simple - for example text only on a badge such as SAVE OUR SCHOOL - we can probably help you. We can do this for you free of charge. We recently did a simple but very effective Save Our School badge by printing black on brightly coloured fluorescent paper. If you are looking for something more detailed and can't produce the artwork yourself, we suggest you ask a friend with a graphics package on their computer to help you out.

What about . . . ?
If you have any other questions or queries, please e-mail us and we will do our best to answer them.
