Artwork Guidelines & Instructions
Accepted File Formats
- Adobe Illustrator CC (or earlier) – .ai or .eps
- Adobe Photoshop CC (or earlier) – .psd or .tif

When using stock photography images, be sure to purchase the highest resolution version that your budget will allow.
We use CMYK printers to create these graphics. 100% reproduction of defined colors is not possible. Differences between colors in the printed and original file can occur at many different stages. Variations in color or shading are often a result of viewing on un-calibrated equipment (monitors, printers, etc). Colors will often appear different when viewed on two different monitors or output devices. Without accurate color information, we have no way of ensuring that expected colors will be achieved.
An e-proof is provided.
Process
- After receiving your file, it will be reviewed. If the file does not meet all necessary requirements, we will contact you.
- Artwork should be submitted the same day the order has been placed to avoid delays.
- If corrections are required, you may make these changes yourself and resubmit the file or choose to have us make the corrections (if we are able to do so).
- After the file has been approved we will send a proof for your approval. We will proceed with production/printing only after the proof is approved .
- Production lead time starts AFTER proof has been approved by the customer.
- Shipping time starts after production time.
* Please indicate any special positioning requirements.
* Due to variations in output and viewing devices, we are unable to accept complaints about color variations unless all color matching guidelines have been followed.
