If you recently purchased any kind of invitation printable template from our shop, you might be wondering the best way to print them. In this blog, we're going to walk through exactly how to do that step by step so whether you're printing from home or using a professional printer, you'll end up with the best quality in the end!!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PRINTING AT HOME

USING HIGH QUALITY PAPER

  1. CHOOSE YOUR PAPER


    We recommend using a 110lb heavy weight white card stock.


  2. EDIT YOUR TEMPLATE


    Use the template marked as “full page”. This file is specifically set up to print two 5"x7" invitations on one 8.5" x 11" paper. The bleed and trim marks are there to help you achieve a perfect cut after printing.


  3. DOWNLOAD YOUR FILE


    - Click “Share” from a computer, on phone use the icon with the arrow pointing up.

    - Click “Download”

    - File Type - Choose “PDF Print”

    - Check the box next to “Flatten PDF”

    - Click “Download”


  4. CHOOSE THE BEST PRINTER SETTINGS


    Ensure your setting is set to your highest printing setting to ensure the best quality print your printer can print.

    - Set to “Scale 100%".

    IMPORTANT: Do not use “Fit to Page”

    - Hit “Print”


  5. HAVE TOOLS ON HAND FOR CUTTING


    This can be done in many different ways, but we recommend  having a few things on hand: 

    Paper Cutter

    Scissors

    Ruler

    - X-ACTO Knife


  6. ORDER ENVELOPES


    If you plan on mailing out your invitations, be sure to order enough size A7 envelopes like these.
