Artwork Guidelines

Uploading images to the VivoPrint Design Tool is simple. First, click the upload icon located under the upload photos tab. From there, you can browse files on your computer and select an image. The design tool accepts the following image formats:

  • JPEG web image (.jpg/.jpeg)
  • GIF web image (.gif)
  • PNG image (.png)

Choose a high-resolution image to produce a high-quality print. Images on mugs and smaller products should be at least 480 x 360 ppi (pixels per inch), while puzzle designs should be at least 800 x 600 ppi. However, the higher the resolution, the clearer the design will appear on your product. So as a general rule of thumb, choose the largest image file you have.
