Artwork Requirements:
The Art Department is Mac based and uses Adobe Creative Suite Design Standard software (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Acrobat). The Art Department supports Adobe files on PC platform and some CAD programs, but we cannot guarantee 100% file compatibility until the art is examined.
Artwork received should contain:
-
Printer and screen fonts used in the document
(outlined fonts are preferred) -
All linked graphics

Color break information.
-
An FPO PDF can be helpful for reference.
Vector graphics may be submitted in EPS (.eps), Adobe Illustrator native (.ai) or PDF. All bitmapped (raster) graphics should be submitted in 8 bit grayscale or CMYK TIFF (.tif), at a minimum resolution of 200 dots per inch (dpi) at print size. The Art Department accepts JPEG (.jpe, .jpg) files for output with this caution: JPEG encoding can cause unpredictable losses in image quality.
