This document gives digital artwork specifications from our press department. Use these guidelines and your project should go 

smoothly through the pre-press department. 

 

 MEDIA: 

Please submit files via E-Mail or on CD. Compressed files should be self extracting. Submitted media will not be returned o the 

customer.  FTP site available upon request. 

 

 PLATFORM: MS WINDOWS

®

/Macintosh

®

 

Projects that are set up in any of the major applications (listed below under "Graphic Applications") generally translate to Macintosh

®

 

smoothly. Please save your final file with pictures embedded, outlined fonts and EPS Vector editable file. 

 

 FONTS: 

Use Type 1 fonts and include screen and printer fonts on disk. Type may be converted to paths or outlines, but we cannot make copy 

changes to text submitted in this form. In addition, converted type loses the benefits of PostScript font definitions; hence, type quality 

may suffer. This is more noticeable in small type (-18 point). 

 

 PLACED GRAPHICS: 

All placed graphics, saved as TIFF or EPS, should be included in their native program. If a Photoshop image is placed in a Quark 

document, we need the Photoshop image to produce the job. Sizing, cropping, rotation, etc.  should all be done to the element in its 

native program and placed in Quark. Color images should be converted from RGB to CMYK. Special colors should be designated using 

PMS or provide color sample to be matched.  Resolution of color images, B&W halftones, or duotones should be 300 dpi. 

 

 GRAPHIC APPLICATIONS (latest version): 

Adobe Photoshop

®

 - Adobe Illustrator

®

  - QuarkXpress

®

 

 

 BITMAPS AND TRACING: 

Scanned line art converted to bitmaps should have a resolution of 1200 - 2400 dpi. Lower resolutions will result in jagged curves. Many 

programs can convert (trace) bitmaps to vector drawings. Smoothing a traced image can  be time consuming, but once completed 

yields a resolution independent graphic that will provide crisp reproduction for all future uses. We can provide this service for you at our 

regular file intervention rate.  Minimum required DPI (dots per inch) is 300.

 

 

 BLEEDS: 

Please incorporate 0.125" of overwork for all bleed images. Any portion of the image that extends to the edge of the product is 

considered a bleed.  Minimum required size with bleed is 2.227" x 3.477" for standard card size file. 

 

 MARGINS: 

Elements that do not bleed should be at least 0.125" from the edge.
