Pocket folders can be made in a variety of sizes, styles, and colors. At Advanced Color Graphics, we can design, review and finalize your custom-design.

If you are designing a project that will require a custom dieline that will be submitted to Advanced Color Graphics, please read the following:

1. The maximum dimension of a dieline including any tabs is 18.75" x 28.25"

2. Parallel lines, either scores or cuts must be at least 0.3125" apart. If lines are any closer together, the material may not eject from the die without tearing.

3. Long narrow shapes that taper to a point will not eject without tearing. If the shape is too narrow, open up the angle or shorten the length or the taper to improve cutting. Please let Advanced Color Graphics review your dieline if you believe this may be an issue.

4. The cost to create a die is influenced by the amount of cutting blade required and the detail or complexity of the shape. The more intricate the die, the more expensive it will be to produce.

5. Your art will be used to make the die. Be sure your art is accurate. Provide specific measurements and/or a mockup with your file. Unless we find a problem, we will make the die exactly as it is on the file.

For business card slits please reference the following guide, for the best results.

Call Us to discuss your project. We can provide custom design or we'll review and finalize your design for great printing results!

Note: All dieline templates represent actual working dies that have been proven to work in production. However, we strongly recommend that you make a dummy of your project using the template to make cuts and folds. This process often reveals changes that need to be made either to the design or to the dieline. If changes to the dieline will be required, the project will need a "custom" die. Custom dies are an additional cost but be assured that the staff at Advanced Color Graphics will review any changes or custom requirements to make the project work perfectly from start to finish.
