The print file for our flat-bottom pouches is divided into five areas: the left side, the front side, the right side, the rear side and the base. The print file for our stand-up pouches on the other hand consists of three areas: the front side, the rear side and the base. In the bottom-right of the layout, you'll find a short summary of the four layers plus an explanation of the different packaging areas.

Just like a filing system, layers help to manage individual elements such as images, texts and logos within a file. The layer order determines the stacking order of individual elements. The four layers are identical in the stand-up pouch and flat-bottom pouch templates: Guideline, White, Keylines and Artwork.

Edges determine the print area of the file. Objects (such as texts) positioned outside these edges will not be printed. Our print templates include a 2mm distance between the cutting edge (black line) and printable edge (light-blue line). These so-called sealing zones identify the area where your pouch is sealed during production.
