Colloquially, many know GTIN as a barcode, but technically, GTIN is the number found beneath the barcode symbol itself, and can therefore also be used for other technologies such as 2D barcodes and RFID tags.
When ordering computer-generated images (CGI) on My GS1 there are a few things that you should pay attention to.
For the order to be processed it is a prerequisite that the GTIN is created at least as a draft in GS1Trade Sync.
GS1 Denmark reserves the right to delete orders where the GTIN is not created in GS1Trade Sync.
Attach the label artwork as a PDF with a resolution/size of at least 2,500 x 2,500 pixels and 300 dpi.
When you save the PDF, use the “package files” command to collect all elements of the PDF, including fonts, colors, and separate images.
Attach a picture or template showing the shape of the packaging on which the new label will be applied.
No graphic edits will be made to the packaging image or template.
The packaging image must be saved as a PNG file of at least 2,500 x 2,500 pixels and 300 dpi.
Please attach a control image of the graphic artwork as a JPG.
The JPG file must have a size of at least 2,500 x 2,500 pixels and 72 dpi.
We compare the artwork control image against the PDF of the artwork, and this allows us to check whether the PDF file contains the necessary data for the order to be processed.
