Frequently asked questions

What if the translation overflows the balloon?

Translations are length-capped to balloon size, with overflow trade-offs logged—so re-lettering never breaks panels or covers art.

Which file formats are supported? Is output print-ready?

PSD, AI, TIFF and other source files are supported; re-lettered delivery includes print-grade 4K images and layered files ready for press.
