Try to
design the pieces using bright colors. We produce excellent 4
color process so don't be locked into thinking you must only use spot
colors.
Keep all critical graphics and text
at least 1/2" from the edges of the final
live area. Because transferring is usually
done by hand, try to stay away from designing even borders close to the
edges of the piece. Please allow 1/2" bleeds on all four sides.
Vector
Keep vector images clean using bright
colors. If the art originates as a vector image, don't convert it to a
raster image. Please save images in eps or AI format.
Raster
Prepare raster images at 200dpi at 100%. Save as RGB with the
profile embedded. Avoid tightly detailed or drab colored images.
The brightest images work best. Please give us any layered files
if you have them.
Layout
You can use Illustrator, Indesign
Photoshop and most other hi-end graphic packages
Try to layout using the smallest footprint possible. See press sizes and
digital sizes under Products.
