Artwork Specification

File Format

We accept all major file formats including Jpeg, Tiff, Pdf. However, Adobe portable document format (PDF) would be ideal for us. When sending us working files (original file format produced in application on Mac or PC) please make sure that all images, objects and required fonts are embedded or supplied format with your artwork submission.

Resolution

Images should be supplied at 100% and at 300 dpi to obtain optimum quality.

Alternations to Artwork Supplied

A charge may be made to cover any additional work not included in the quotation. This covers any alterations to the artwork supplied. Where such work is required, a price will be given and agreed prior to the commencement of the additional work wherever possible.

Safe Zone and Bleed

All images and text, logos, etc, apart from background images need to be placed 3mm away from the edge of the page. Do not use rule borders near the edge of the page.

Fonts

If you are supplying fonts for an editable document then please ensure you have supplied the Mac or Open version. We have a large number of font libraries and their variations. However, we recommend that you supply your fonts that were used within the document. Alternatively, please convert all text within the document into vector or outline. For PDF files, make sure you have embedded the fonts within the document.

Proofs

We highly recommend on larger projects to supply a Pre-Production Press Proof (this is a final product sample) along with your artwork. This is often an important element in a project going well and avoid mistake.
