Artwork Guidelines

Sending Artwork as PDF

  • High-resolution (print quality) PDF documents. Include 1/8″ bleed at trim edges.
  • WRONG TEMPLATE, INACCURATE FILES, LOW-QUALITY GRAPHICS WILL BE REJECTED.

Sending Artwork as Layout Files from “Native” Program

  • Collect all elements: use “Package” & “Collect for Output” in program.

###### Fonts

  • Printer and screen fonts. Use font from list – not styles: bold, italic, etc.
  • Type in Illustrator files: Convert to outlines/paths (curves in CorelDraw).

###### Images

  • Hi-res photos: 300 dpi CMYK & grayscale. No RGB/72 dpi graphics.
  • Scan/line art: 1200 dpi, bitmap images.
  • Save as: PSD or TIF format.

###### Graphics

  • Vector (outline) art: Convert all type to outlines.
  • Use proper color mode (CMYK – not RGB).
  • Save as: EPS format.

Ink Color in Your Artwork

  • ALL COLOR GRAPHICS MUST BE CMYK. Not RGB or PMS (spot) colors.

###### Images: Rich Black

  • Text, thin rules and thin graphic elements should be specified as 100% black (no CMYK).
  • Build larger, solid black areas at: C60%, M40%, Y40%, K100% (240% ink coverage).

###### Blue in CMYK graphics

  • Blue can cast toward purple – how to avoid this?
  • Refer to Pantone® 4-Color Process Guide & Pantone® Color Bridge.
  • Select a blue-formula with 30% more cyan than magenta in the mixture.

  • Proofread and test print your files: Print color separations. Added charges apply if we need to modify your files.
  • We are not responsible for errors in supplied files.
