About this service

Many production methods, including screen printing, multi-color vinyl, and layered cutting, work one color at a time. Color separation splits your artwork into one layer per color, lines them up with registration marks, and adds small overlaps where colors meet so slight misalignment doesn't leave gaps.

How we build it

  • One layer per color, clearly labelled
  • Registration marks to align layers
  • Overlaps (traps) where colors meet
  • Set up for your specific production method
