Fonts

Font size

To ensure good readability of your printed product, do not use font sizes smaller than 6 points (2.1 mm). Attention: The respective font size depends on the font. It is possible that different fonts will look differently-sized at the same point size. Information on specific requirements can be found in the data sheet for the respective product.

Fonts in a PDF

Please ensure that all text elements are embedded in your print file. Fonts are normally embedded automatically after the PDF export. If this is not the case, you should convert your text to paths. We generally recommend converting all texts to paths.
