Advanced guide to preparing artwork for a 3x3 m event tent
The template file contains marked panels that match the individual parts of the tent structure:
- A - Roof
- B - Front wall
- C - Back wall
- D - Left side wall
- E - Right side wall
- Prepare the file: open the PDF or AI template and keep the original panel order and dimensions.
- Bleeds and cut lines: use 5 cm bleed and keep important text or logos at least 10 cm away from the cut line.
- Single-sided print: specify whether the print should be on the outside or inside. If the inside is selected, mirror the artwork horizontally.
- Resolution and color: use at least 150 dpi at scale 1:1, preferably 300 dpi, and prepare artwork in CMYK.
- Export: save the final file as PDF/X-1a with embedded fonts or outlines. The recommended file naming pattern is
Tent3x3_[order-number]_A-E.pdf. - Technical margins: leave extra margin for seams and hook-and-loop fasteners, and avoid placing key visual elements near joins or structural openings.
- Final check: verify panel order, orientation, colors, bleeds and safe area before sending the file for production.
- Delivery: send the final PDF together with a short note describing the intended use and the chosen print side.
