A transparent PNG is perfect for digital documents, but to manufacture a physical stamp a maker needs a precise, true-size file. That is what the print-ready PDF is for.
What makes a file "print-ready"
- True size: the artwork is placed at the exact stamp diameter in millimetres.
- Black artwork: the PDF renders the design in black — the single-colour master a die is cut from — regardless of your on-screen ink colour.
- Cut guide and crop marks: a dashed circle and corner marks show the trim and centre.
How to get yours
If you have an access code, enter it under the preview in the generator and click Unlock PDF. When you order a physical stamp, the print-ready PDF is produced for you automatically and included with your order — along with your transparent PNG.
Why true size matters
Scaling a screen image up for print softens edges and curved text. A true-size vector-positioned PDF keeps the impression crisp at the exact diameter you ordered — see our sizes guide.
Prefer we handle it?
