User should avoid these most common mistakes while designing birthday card software: *Incorrect bleed design: A bleed margin is the area outside the card's final trim size where the design extends, ensuring it reaches the card's edge without white borders. Using the correct bleed margins (usually 0.125 inches) is crucial. *Low-resolution images: To ensure clear and crisp design results, use high-resolution images with a resolution of at least 300 dpi, and ensure they are in the correct file format and colour mode for print, such as JPEG or PNG. *Ignoring the printing process: The printing process is crucial for ensuring a design that looks as expected when printed, so it's essential to consider factors like paper type, ink type, and printing method. *Poor colour choice: Limit the number of colours in your design to 2-3, ensuring they complement each other and are in the correct colour mode (CMYK) for print, to avoid chaotic or unappealing final products. BY FOLLOWING THESE STEPS USER WILL ENSURE THAT THE BIRTHDAY CARD DESIGNS ARE ACCESSIBLE FOR ALL TYPE OF USERS: *Use Clear and Legible fonts: Clear, legible fonts are crucial for accessibility, with at least 12-point sizes and high contrast between text and background, avoiding decorative fonts that may be difficult to read. *Consider Different Disabilities: Designing birthday cards considers disabilities like colour blindness and cognitive disabilities, ensuring high-contrast colours and clear language for better user experience. *Use high-contrast colours: High-contrast colours aid visually impaired individuals in distinguishing design elements, avoiding too similar or blend-like colours. *Provide keyword shortcuts: Keyboard shortcuts are beneficial for individuals with motor disabilities who struggle with mouse use, especially when designing birthday cards, allowing easy access to functions like saving, printing, and sending.
