01 How do I place an order?

Pick your product on the website and tap the WhatsApp button — the message arrives with your options already filled in. You can also call us, email, or simply walk into our Karama workshop. For documents, use our Document Printing page to upload files and get a price instantly.

02 What file formats do you accept?

Print-ready PDF is best. We also accept AI, EPS, PSD, JPG, PNG, TIFF and Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint files. For document printing you can upload several files at once directly on the website.

03 What's the difference between digital and offset printing?

Digital printing is faster and better suited for small-to-medium runs; offset printing is more cost-effective for large bulk orders with consistent color quality.

04 Can I get a sample before ordering a large quantity?

Yes, for select products like business cards or packaging, we can provide a sample before you commit to a bulk run.

05 Why does my file look blurry when printed?

Almost always resolution. Images need roughly 300 DPI at their final printed size — an image that looks sharp on screen at 72 DPI will look soft on paper. For logos and text, send vector artwork instead, which stays crisp at any size.

06 What is bleed and do I need it?

Bleed is 3mm of extra artwork extending past the trim line. Sheets shift slightly during cutting, so without bleed you may get thin white edges. Keep important text and logos at least 4mm inside the trim line as well.

07 What is Same-Day Printing?

Same-day printing means your order is produced and ready for pickup or delivery within hours of confirmation, if placed before our daily cutoff time. Ideal for: business cards, flyers, posters, and urgent event banners.

08 What is Next-Day Printing?

Next-day printing gives us more production time — which often means better pricing for bulk orders and more finishing options (lamination, cutting styles, binding). Best for: bulk brochures, catalogs, signage, and branded packaging.

09 Is same-day printing available in Al Karama, Dubai?

Yes, Multistar Printing offers same-day printing from our Al Karama location for select products like business cards, flyers, and banners, subject to our daily order cutoff time.

10 Do you offer design services?

Yes. Our in-house team designs from scratch, redraws low-quality logos into vector, adapts existing artwork to new sizes and prepares files for print. Simple adjustments to a file you supply are usually free; full design work is quoted based on the job.

11 Will I see a proof before printing?

Yes. You receive a digital PDF proof to approve before anything goes to press. For large runs, packaging and colour-critical work we can also produce a physical sample. Nothing is printed until you confirm.

12 Do you deliver printing orders across Dubai and the UAE?

Yes, we deliver across Dubai and the wider UAE, with a separate delivery charge applied to your order. If you'd prefer a faster or self-arranged option, you can also book your own delivery through popular Dubai courier apps like Careem or Porter for pickup from our Al Karama location.

13 Will I receive exactly the quantity I ordered?

Yes. Unlike large offset houses that allow over- or under-runs, we supply the quantity you ordered. If a job requires a small overage for setup, you receive the extras at no charge.

14 I found a mistake in my delivered order — can I get a reprint?

If the error is ours — wrong colour, wrong material, poor trimming or a fault against the approved proof — we reprint at our cost. Contact us within 48 hours of receiving the job with photos. If the error was present in the approved artwork, we will reprint at a reduced rate.

15 How much does delivery cost?

Delivery charges depend on your location and order size — contact us for an exact quote. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option, affordable delivery services like Porter and Qmove are also available across Dubai for quick pickup from our Al Karama location.

16 What are your payment terms?

We accept cash, card and bank transfer. New customers typically pay in full or 50% up front for large custom jobs. Established business clients can arrange account terms — speak to us about setting this up.
