Is My Artwork Press-Ready?

ARTWORK CHECKLIST: 

1. Color Mode: Did you convert to CYMK?
2. Resolution: Are images at least 300 dpi?
3. Fonts: Did you outline (Illustrator) or rasterize (Photoshop) all fonts?
4. Bleed: Did you add at least .125" bleed around artwork?
   
   

FORMATTING DETAILS:

What file format should I save and send my file?

Recommended: Save as a .PDF

We prefer that you send .PDF and/or .EPS files with outlined fonts. These files are easier to handle and will likely speed up your turnaround.

Other Acceptable Formats: jpg, jpeg, psd, tif, tiff, eps, ai, and png

When exporting a PDF from programs such as InDesign or Illustrator, use these settings to make sure your .PDF files export correctly.

• Adobe PDF Preset is set to: Press Quality
• Compatibility is set to: Acrobat 7
• If using Adobe Illustrator, save file as "Illustrator Default"
