Convert Ornate Rice Packaging to Vector Files

Job ID: 40457757

Budget: $30 – $250 CAD

**Title:** Convert Premium Rice Bag Artwork to Print-Ready Vector Files (AI/EPS)

**Project Description:**

I need an experienced packaging designer to convert my existing rice bag artwork (currently in PNG/PDF format) into fully editable, print-ready vector files for offset printing in India.

**About the brand:**
Sovereign's Choice is a premium USDA Organic Basmati rice brand. The design has an ornate, royal aesthetic with gold filigree borders, decorative elements, and elegant typography on a black background.

**Deliverables required:**

1. **Adobe Illustrator (.AI)** source files — fully editable, all layers organized and named
2. **EPS** files for the printer
3. **PDF/X-1a** print-ready export with crop marks and bleed
4. All four panels: Front, Back, Left Side, Right Side
5. Source files for future product line expansion (10 SKUs planned)

**Technical specifications (non-negotiable):**

- **Color mode:** CMYK (not RGB)
- **Resolution:** 300 DPI minimum
- **Bleed:** 3mm on all sides
- **Dimensions:** 110mm × 240mm per panel (final trim 104mm × 234mm)
- **Gold elements:** Pantone 871 C metallic gold (spot color)
- **Fonts:** All fonts converted to outlines/paths
- **Layers:** Properly organized and labeled (background, borders, typography, USDA Organic seal, barcode area, batch info)

**What I will provide:**

- Current PNG artwork of all four panels
- Brand guidelines and color codes
- USDA Organic seal placement
- GTIN barcode (will be supplied separately)
- Reference samples of the design intent

**Important:**

- I need someone who has done **food packaging or CPG (consumer packaged goods) vector work before** — please show examples in your bid
- The files must be accepted by an offset printer in India without rework
- I will retain full ownership of all source files and design rights
- A simple NDA will be required before sharing artwork

**Budget:** $50–150 USD (please bid your actual rate; quality matters more than lowest price)

**Timeline:** 3–5 days from project start

**To be considered, please answer in your bid:**

1. Have you done food/CPG packaging vector work? Share 2–3 examples.
2. Are you comfortable working with Pantone spot colors and CMYK separations?
3. What is your turnaround time?
4. Do you provide revisions if the printer rejects the files?

Please do NOT send generic copy-paste bids — they will be ignored. Read the spec, address the points above, and your bid will get a response.

Thank you.
