We accept the following media types, formatted either for PC or Mac:
3 1/2" Diskettes (1.4M) CD-R CD-RW Iomega Zip Flash Drive Media Card
All documents and scanned images must be provided on properly formatted media. For better organization we suggest that you make a separate directory for all your fonts and one for all your graphic images. Graphics must be in CMYK format for full color printing. For one or two color spot printing, spot colors may be used. Please make sure all linked files are copied to the media being sent and links updated.
Please send hard copy samples with your files
Hard Copy Artwork Accepted
We also accept Hard Copy Artwork. Please provide camera ready art for your job: Please avoid using an inkjet printer to produce graphics, screens, gradations or art for camera ready art work. Inkjet printers do not produce a uniform dot pattern that is needed for camera ready art. While output from an inkjet printer may look crisp and good to the eye, it results in very poor quality output when processed using print industry cameras
Your laser printer must be capable of producing 85 10 150 line screen. Lower value line screens tend to lose detail and result in poor quality output while Finer line screens may "plug up" resulting in splotchy output.
