Design size
Set artwork files to actual 'size' with Photoshop files saved as 300dpi.
Logos, graphic and lettering
Vector based artwork is required for most types of printing. Adobe Illustrator is the preferred program, please save as .ai or .eps files.
Ensure any placed images have a resolution of 300dpi and image size should be at least 100% of intended print size.
Digital photographs
If you just want a photograph printed then the following formats are acceptable: .psd, .jpeg, .pdf, .eps.
- Image resolution must be 300dpi
- Image to be at least 100% of intended print size

Fonts
If you have used text, convert all the text to outlines. This is very important as it will allow us to view your files as they were designed, instead of having our program convert your fonts to one that is installed. If you can't convert the text to outlines then make sure you supply us with the appropriate fonts.
