Electronic files of line art must be in a vector format. EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), CDR (CorelDRAW), and AI (Adobe Illustrator) files are considered camera-ready art. Files in PDF format (Adobe Acrobat) are also acceptable if they are generated specifically for professional print output. Please specify Pantone color matches if needed for line art and fonts. BMP,TIF, GIF, JPG or PNG files are not acceptable for line art.
If your artwork contains scanned images (photos), must be scanned at 600 dpi resolution. Scanned photo images should be saved as CMYK or Grayscale TIFF (.TIF) files. Sending us these images in a compressed .ZIP file will reduce chances of file corruption. Please contact us before attempting to artwork files larger than 5MB.
