ARTWORK REQUIREMENTS

To achieve the highest quality printing and expedite the ordering process, please follow the below artwork guideline.

ARTWORK SETUP

  • All artwork should be set up in CMYK color mode. RGB will be converted to CMYK before printing. This conversion will likely cause a color shift to the finished product. To avoid discrepancies, set up your file in CMYK color mode rather than RGB.
  • Providing solid coated Pantone® numbers that end with “C” allows us to precisely match your brand colors accurately and maintain color consistency when printing. Indicate specific Pantone® colors that you require us to match.
  • Preferred art formats: AI, EPS or PDF. These types of files allow us to scale your artwork to the necessary size that’s required for large format printing without encountering distortion or pixelation.
  • Photographic image files must be provided in the highest resolution possible.
  • All rasterized images should be at least 200dpi at print size. Rasterized photo images should be CMYK, not RGB. All linked files and images need to be embedded.
  • All fonts and strokes must be converted to outlines.
  • We cannot digitally print HEX, metallic or fluorescent colors.
  • Raster images and effects will be printed in CMYK.
  • Additional fees will apply for artwork redraw. We will provide you with vector format art to use for future projects.
