Wind Direction

Referencing our Print and Wind Direction Chart will help you understand your options when it comes to readability of your finished custom printing job. This is an often overlooked factor when looking into Custom Printed Paper for your business.

How to choose a direction

  • Confirm whether the printed surface faces in or out.
  • Confirm whether the artwork reads from the free end or toward the core.
  • Note any required sensemark position.
  • Review and approve the final direction before production.
