Artwork Requirement

We require VECTOR ART created in Adobe Illustrator or EPS format.

Important Note: A scanned image (e.g, .jpg, .gif, .bmp, .tiff, .psd, .pdf) or art created in a photo/paint/word program is not vector art.

In addition, placing, linking, embedding, or copying these images into a drawing program does not convert them into vector art and will not meet our art requirements. We can convert them to vector for you at a minimal clean-up charge.

Following Formats are acceptable with a minimum $25+ clean up charge:

- Bitmap Image (*.bmp)

- GIF Image (*.gif)

- JPEG Image (*.jpg,*.jpeg)

- Excel File (*.exl)

Placed/Imported Images and Halftones

Due to the nature of the printing process, you will not get the best imprint with scanned images (jpg, gif, bmp, tif, psd), even if they are high res. If you are including images, please be sure to provide tif or eps files in high res black and white.
