If your job is going to be die-cut, and the product allows custom formes, then it is acceptable to use any combination of cuts, perforations, creases and punched holes, providing that the total number of anchor points does not exceed the maximum allowed, dependant on the flat size of the product.
Flat size | Anchor point limit | |
---|---|---|
Simple | Complex | |
Smaller than A4 | 15 | 23* |
A4 or larger | 20 | 28* |
*The complex option is available for products that allow the CF finishing option.
Here are some examples of cut out shapes, along with the number of anchor points used to create the shape:
13 anchor points for perforated shape plus 2 anchor points for each punched hole.
8 anchor points for the shaped edge.
15 anchor points for the shaped edge.
12 anchor points for the shaped edge.
