The Ultimate Guide to Printing Your Digital Invitations: Home vs. Professional

The Ultimate Guide to Printing Your Digital Invitations: Home vs. Professional

So, you’ve found the perfect design at FineByStudio, customized it with your details, and downloaded the file. Now comes the most common question we get asked: "How do I print this to make it look as good as it does on the screen?"

The beauty of digital downloads is flexibility. You have two great options: printing at home for a DIY project, or using a professional partner for a flawless finish.

Here is everything you need to know to get the best results.

Option 1: Printing at Home (The DIY Route)

If you have a good inkjet printer and want to save some money, printing at home is a great option. However, standard office paper won't cut it. Here are our top tips for home printing:

  • Paper Matters: Use heavy White Cardstock (at least 100lb or 270gsm). This gives the invitation a sturdy, premium feel.

  • Printer Settings: Always change your printer settings to "Best Quality" or "Photo Printing". Ensure "Scale" is set to 100% so the size remains correct.

  • Trimming: Use a paper trimmer or an X-Acto knife with a ruler instead of scissors for perfectly straight edges.

Option 2: Professional Printing (The Stress-Free Route)

If you don’t want to worry about buying ink, finding the right cardstock, or cutting straight lines, we highly recommend professional printing.
