I think these are done? Can we close this ticket?
Yes, this can be closed. Thank you so much for providing the files.

pjp - re the size dimensions / bleed / etc - these are provided by
the
vendor, not the design team.
Yes, we discussed this during FAD[1] last weekend. While I understand how
these values could vary from one sleeve design to another and from one
printer to another, and why these need to come from the vendor. I think
design team could share the parameters and sleeve design for which the
above designs were made, for reference.
The thing is, I'm no designer. I don't understand design and print process
details like you, to have a conversation with the vendor or his designer.
When I asked them about these parameters, they say you give us the files
and we'll print it as you want. If there is any change, I can not say
technically why that change is. For ex. recent F24 sleeve designs came out
a little darker than they look on the screen. When I asked them about it,
they says it generally looks like that on the screen. But then couple of
days back I came across CMYK on the ambassador's list.

Maybe the darkness could be because of the CMYK & RGB difference, I don't
know for sure. Then I opened the above F24 Sleeve and label designs in
gimp(1) and it shows it as RGB colour, not CMYK. But when I run the given
identify(1) command, it shows CMYK. Now when the same files are opened on
Ms Windows' design tools, I've no way to know if all requisite parameters
are right or not. And this is not the problem faced by just me, I bet it's
faced by many-many ambassadors/contributors across regions who try to
produce Fedora branded swag/media locally.
Thank you.[[br]]
