Please Review Your Artwork at 100%

Before submitting your file, open it in Photoshop or another professional image-editing program and inspect it at 100%. Confirm that important details are crisp and that the artwork does not appear blurry or pixelated.

Enlarging a small or low-resolution image to fit a template does not add detail or improve its printing quality.
