Printing Art work File TIPS:

  • Convert all black font to black (key)
  • Document size should be the finish size.
  • Do not compress single graphics or images  
  • Place corner marks where the art work is to be trimmed
  • Indicate folds or perforations in the bleed area with a tick mark
  • Do not copy and paste. Import an illustration to your layout to create a link
  • Type your text in a word processing program and import it to publishing software
  • Single page orders: Front/ Back of document should be setup as two separate pages
  • Do not use image editing software as layout software. Place illustrations in a layout software
  • All text file should be converted to outline/ path with the outline/ stroke set to zero to
    eliminate the need to send us fonts

Generally all design software will allow you to save-as or export as one of the accepted file
formats. Once the graphics are in a accepted file format, they are "finalized" and embedded,

this way any possibility of errors is reduced.
