Vinyl Artwork / Sleeves / Label / Booklet Requirements and Templates

2 min read

Precision is key: Proper bleeds, dimensions, formats, and color profiles ensure your vinyl packaging prints cleanly and aligns correctly, no white edges, no blurry text.

Give these templates along with the instructions to your Graphic Designer or if you are familiar with Adobe Illustrator yourself:

See templates here.

We’ll need:

  1. Cover (back and front)
  2. Label
  3. Sleeves
  4. Booklet (optional)

Understanding Bleed #

Most templates include a bleed area, usually 3 mm, marked in red. If your design includes images or colors that go to the edge of your sleeve, let them extend into that bleed. This ensures nothing unwanted shows up at the edge after trimming.
