Custom Acrylic Standee Artwork Guidelines

Get your artwork ready for high-quality custom acrylic standees. BOCE GIFTS helps wholesalers, retailers, brands, and promotional product distributors turn their designs into production-ready acrylic merchandise.

Follow our artwork guidelines to get accurate printing, clean cutting, vibrant colors, and consistent quality for every bulk order.

1. Double-Sided Printing Options

BOCE GIFTS offers two double-sided printing options for custom acrylic standees.

Same Artwork on Both Sides

Upload one artwork file. We use the same design on both sides. The back design follows a mirrored layout by default.

Different Artwork on Each Side

Upload your front and back designs as separate files. Select “Double-Sided Printing – Different Designs” when placing your order.

Please check the orientation of both designs before uploading.

Important: If your artwork contains text, logos, or directional elements, choose different designs for each side. This helps you keep all text and graphics correctly oriented.

2. Product Size and Measurement

We calculate the acrylic standee size based on the longest edge of the complete finished piece, including the acrylic border.

When preparing your artwork:

• Measure the entire standee outline, not just the printed character or graphic.

• Check the available size options on the product page.

• Consider the overall proportions of your design and the matching acrylic base.

• Contact our team if you need a special size for your wholesale order.

BOCE GIFTS Tip: Please confirm your finished product dimensions before production. Accurate measurements help us provide the correct wholesale pricing and production specifications.

3. Standard Acrylic Border

Our standard acrylic standees feature a clear acrylic border, with a typical reference width of 2 mm.

You don’t need to create the cutting outline yourself. Simply upload your original artwork, and our design team will help prepare the cutting outline based on your design.

If you have specific border widths, cutting shapes, or outline requirements, include clear instructions with your order.

Our team can review your artwork before bulk production.

4. White Outlines and Border Details

White outlines help define the shape of your acrylic standee and create a clean finished appearance.

However, extremely thin white borders may look narrower after cutting and printing.

For better results:

• Avoid extremely thin white outlines.

• Keep enough space between important design details and the cutting edge.

• Use clear, consistent border widths.

• Provide reference images if you have specific cutting requirements.

Our design team can help review your artwork and recommend suitable adjustments before production.

5. White Ink and Transparency Effects

White ink plays an important role in acrylic printing. It helps maintain color coverage, brightness, and opacity.

White Areas

We use solid white ink backing for opaque white printing. White ink does not create a semi-transparent white effect.

Semi-Transparent Colors

If your design includes translucent colors, use clear layer settings and mark these areas in your artwork.

Avoid extremely low color values, as very light colors may look less visible after printing.

For the best printing results, please share your original design files so our team can review the color effects before production.

Special Finishes & Custom Acrylic Options

6. Full-Bleed Acrylic Standees

Want a clean look without a visible clear acrylic border around your design?

Our full-bleed acrylic standees offer an alternative to traditional bordered designs.

For artwork preparation:

• Extend the background color approximately 0.5 mm beyond the intended cutting edge as a bleed area.

• Keep important text and graphics away from the cutting edge.

• Upload your original artwork without creating your own cutting outline.

• Tell us if you need a specific edge or cutting effect.

Our design team can help prepare the production outline according to your artwork.

7. Gradient and Semi-Transparent Effects

Gradient colors and semi-transparent effects add depth to custom acrylic merchandise.

To help us reproduce your design accurately:

• Keep gradient and transparency effects on separate, clearly named layers whenever possible.

• Mark semi-transparent areas in your artwork or file name.

• Include special printing instructions in your order notes.

• Avoid excessively pale colors in areas that need clear visibility.

• Provide reference images if your design requires a specific visual effect.

Our production team will review special effects before mass production.

8. Custom Acrylic Colors and Finishes

Beyond standard clear acrylic, BOCE GIFTS supports custom acrylic merchandise for different branding and promotional needs.

Depending on the product and production requirements, you can discuss options such as:

• Custom-colored acrylic

• Transparent and translucent effects

• Printed patterns and full-color graphics

• Special cutting shapes

• Custom sizes and thicknesses

Contact our team to check available materials, customization options, MOQ, and wholesale pricing.
