Your Artwork
We want to make it as easy as possible for you to supply us with your artwork. If you would prefer to discuss your files in more detail, please contact us.
We can accept all of these files types (including all previous versions) :-
- Adobe Creative Suite CS3
- Quark Xpress 8 Std Edition
- Macromedia Freehand MX
We can accept PDFs, although we prefer to use your original files with all linked images and fonts. This is because we often need to edit files to add a bleed or spare fabric for finishing.
If you would prefer to supply files from another application, please turn all text into outline format, embed any placed images and save it as an EPS. If you can't supply Mac fonts, all text should be made into paths or outlines.
You can provide work in any scale (10%, 25%, 50% etc) but please ensure that the file supplied is in the correct proportion to the finished work and advise us of the scale used for trimming purposes, using crop marks to highlight the trimmed size. Please add at least 25mm bleed to each side. (Scan resolution should be at least 300dpi at 1/10th scale)
If you need to compress graphic files, please use high quality jpeg compression files to avoid excessive image degradation. If this isn't possible, it's best to use ZIP or Stuffit to compress your files.
Please provide us with printed layouts and colour guides wherever possible
