* The templates are designed for use with Adobe Photoshop or similar professional design software.
* Adobe Indesign's built in templates are fine to use except for the CD disc templates. If using Indesign we need booklet pages exported as 2-page spreads in PDF format with page numbers included (either on artwork or in file name).
* For the fastest turnaround please submit artwork directly on our templates with all the information completed including page numbers.
* Read our instruction document before starting:
