ARTWORK GUIDELINES


Preferred Artwork

There are two basic digital ways for printers to receive artwork.
As a high resolution PDF (a more preferred up-to-date method) or
a compressed file (usually Adobe InDesign or Illustrator document with images and fonts included or outlined).

PDF: The advantages of high res PDFs

Smaller file size (compressed)
There won't be any problems with fonts not loading or images going missing
You will have a better idea of how the job will print.
Note: Top quality reliable PDFs can easily be exported direct from InDesign and Illustrator.


Common Problems:

  • Files with no bleeds or the wrong sized bleeds
  • 72dpi or other low resolution files (files must be 300dpi!)
  • Improperly sized files
  • Files with text or other critical design elements placed too close to the cut or trim line.
  • Missing fonts.


Checking your High Res PDF

Open it in Acrobat Professional and have a good look at the job - it might be the last time you see it and maybe you can spot some errors.
