For
your convenience, we are Windows (PC) and Macintosh compatible. If
your program is not listed below, please call so we can find a way
to use your files.
WE HAVE AVAILABLE:
* Adobe Illustrator CS2 (v13) for PC and Mac
* CorelDraw X3 (v13 and below) for PC
* CorelDRAW 11 for Mac
*Adobe Photoshop 7.0 for Mac and 8.0 for PC
*Adobe Acrobat (Reader 7.0 and Writer 6.0)
There are many other programs available to open/read your files.
However, since they are not specifically graphic programs, we
cannot build separations from them. Use of these non-graphic
programs may be subject to additional conversion charges. PLEASE
BE SURE TO CONVERT ALL FONTS TO CURVES or include your fonts for
us to utilize.
Please remember that a VECTOR format is preferred for most files
and will produce a better print during production. Vector files
allow us to manipulate the art by use of nodes (or points) which
can be moved within the graphic (edges can be straightened, lines
smoothed, etc).
Vector File Extensions we like to see:
.ai
.cdr
.eps
.pdf
Raster images (no nodes and cannot be manipulated) are mostly for
CMYK separations (4-color process / photo-like images) and need to
be saved at a minimum of 300 dpi (dots per inch) for best results.
Raster File Extensions we like to see:
.psd
.tiff
.pcx
.bmp
.jpeg
.gif
In most cases artwork “to size” is not necessary. Our graphics
department can resize your logo or imprint to fit.
Please
Note: The first 15 minutes of artwork are free (that is the
average time it takes to size artwork that has been prepared
correctly). If additional artwork is required, we
charge $95 per hour in intervals of 15 minutes.
