Here is a link to our Transparency Artwork Guidelines
For the Amazon Design-In Labels, you can upload the following types of images for creating your roll labels:
Vector Images: Resolution independent images that use points, lines, and shapes and can be resized without any loss of quality. Vector images include EPS, PDF, AI, and SVG.
When possible, save your artwork as a high-resolution Adobe PDF with Press Quality selected. We also suggest applying PDF/X to ensure all elements of your art file will be printed as you see them.
Prepare Your File for Upload
A Transparency 2D data matrix barcode will be added to your labels, so you need to reserve an empty space measuring a minimum of 0.54” inch (13.7 mm) on your label for the barcode. The barcode will be unique for each label based on the Transparency codes from Amazon. The space you create will need to include the Transparency “T” logo, the barcode and the Amazon instructions to the right or bottom.
Label requirements for Transparency:
- Designate space for the data matrix barcode and Transparency identification
- Include the Transparency “T” logo using Amazon approved imagery
- Add instructions as outlined in the Transparency Onboarding Guidelines
Assign the Data Matrix Barcode
To choose where the data matrix barcode goes, create a spot color named VDPBARCODE. Use this spot color in your artwork.
Create a square shape and assign the spot color to the stroke, fill or both. This is the space you will designate for the data matrix code on each label.
