32 mm badge template and button badge size

A 32 mm badge template is the button badge template for the smallest common pin-back circle. Abhishek Design Studio draws that circle with a safe zone and bleed, then exports an A4 PDF.

The die cut is 44 mm. The bleed is 6 mm on each side, from the 32 mm face out to the die cut. The safe margin is 1.5 mm inside the face, so names and faces stay inside the 29 mm safe zone.

Bad example
Asha Die cut 44 mm Face 32 mm Safe 29 mm

Bad example. The name is cut off because it crosses the 29 mm safe zone. The colour stops at the finished face, so the bleed prints white.

Good example
Asha Die cut 44 mm Face 32 mm Safe 29 mm

Good example. The name is kept inside the 29 mm safe zone. The colour runs across the bleed to the 44 mm die cut.

Common print problems

  • The circles are too small on the sheet. The printer scaled the page. Choose 100% scale.
  • The word is cut off. Use fewer letters and keep them inside the safe zone.
  • You need the Corel file. Use the 32×32 mm badge template file link.
