If you encounter any issues, even after ensuring your artwork file meets our requirements, don't worry! Please refer to the following guide for assistance.
Case No. 1: I cannot upload the file even if it is 72 dpi or up.
Resolution: Please simply open the file in Photoshop and save a copy as JPG/JPEG. This will enable you to upload the file through our website.
Case No. 2: I cannot upload the file even if it is JPEG/JPG.
Resolution: Please simply open the file in Photoshop and save a copy as JPG/JPEG. Just to make sure not to export as JPEG/JPG.
Case No. 3: I cannot upload the file even if it is 50MB or less.
Resolution: It is likely that the file size in pixels/megapixels displayed in Photoshop is too large. Just a heads up that the compressed JPEG/JPG file size should be under 50MB, and the file size in pixels/megapixels displayed in Photoshop should be less than 940M. Please keep these limits in mind and you should be good to go!
