Resolution requirements
 |
All photoshop files or other
pixel based digital files must be supplied at a resolution of a minimum 100dpi and maximum
150dpi at the finished (printed) size of the graphic being produced.
When submitting CD's:
Do not send original artwork. Send copies. We will not return submitted CD's
unless accompanied by a stamped, self address mailer.
A special word about artwork for logos:
Logos taken from web sites are not adequate for print (the resolution is too low) and will
need to be redrawn at extra cost. The same holds for logos embedded in Microsoft
Word and Powerpoint.
A special word about color matching:
When color matching is important, we need something to match the color to. Send
along a hard copy proof or alert us to specific pms colors to match.
Also, when sending Photoshop files, if a color match is important, the file must be in
layers. We cannot match to specific colors in a flattened Photoshop file.
If we have printed a graphic for you in the past and you wish to match to that graphic,
you must send the graphic back to us for matching. Due to the sensitive nature of
digital printing reprints cannot be depended on to match previous jobs. |
Application requirements
 |
The preferred application for
vector art and page layout of ShowMax displays is Adobe Illustrator. The preferred
application for pixel art or photos is Adobe Photoshop. Graphic files supplied in
other applications may need to be converted or rebuilt at an extra cost.
Regarding Fonts: If you are submitting print ready files, please outline or
convert to paths all fonts. If you are submitting files that require editing
remember to send the fonts with your submission.
For output from your disk, please have document built to 100% of actual size.
Outline (or convert to paths) all fonts. Placed files can be tiff, JPEG, photoshop,
or EPS files in RGB color space. |
