What should I check on a food label before printing?

The mandatory particulars for the market you sell in. For US food: the statement of identity and net quantity on the principal display panel, the ingredient list, allergen declarations, Nutrition Facts and the name and place of business. For EU food: the particulars listed in Article 9 of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. Claims and the conditions attached to them need checking too. RegaaS reviews your artwork against these rules for the market you choose.

Can RegaaS review my print artwork?

Yes, as images: upload PNG or JPG exports of the artwork, such as the front and back panels, up to 6 files and 50 MB per review. Export at a resolution where the smallest text is readable.

Can a picture show type size, boldface and contrast?

Not reliably. Where a requirement depends on print measurements such as type height, boldface or contrast, the report tells you what to verify on the print file.

Should I run the review again after fixing the artwork?

Yes. Upload the revised artwork as a new review to confirm the changes. Each review uses one credit.
