What changed since 21 Sep
- The box PDFs now display correctly in Chrome and Brave. The 21 Sep box files used an image-compression setting that Chrome and Brave's built-in PDF viewer decodes wrongly at this size, so they looked like garbage there. The artwork itself was intact, which is why Illustrator showed it correctly. v2 uses plain compression. It was checked in Chrome/Brave's own viewer, Firefox's pdf.js, PDFium and MuPDF.
- The art is on Packola's template. Each upload file is their template page with the artwork placed on it. The template's cut and crease lines ride along on their own non-printing layer, so the printer sees the art sitting on their dieline.
- White ink travels inside the file. It is a spot colour "White": under the colour on the outside, and the white type on the inside. It reaches Packola with the upload instead of sitting in a separate file.
- Two direction and production fixes. Both bottom-flap logos now read the same way, as on the approved comp. The art on the long top and bottom flaps no longer bleeds 1/8 in onto the edges of the bare end flaps.
