ARTWORK REQUIREMENTS


RASTER ART

  • File Formats: .PSD, .PDF, .TIFF, .EPS

  • Create art to the size you wish for it to be produced.

  • Create art at 300dpi resolution in RGB color mode.

  • Do not flatten or merge layers; keep all working layers intact.

  • Remove any layers that are not required for the final product.

  • Choose colors from our Pantone+ Solid Coated Stock Inks list that you would like to have used in your final product. If PMS colors are not specified, our Art Department will choose PMS colors for you.

  • Files that were created at 72dpi and stretched to 300dpi will not be accepted.

  • Files created at 150dpi can be used in some cases, but are not always ideal and preparation of these files may demand art fees.

  • In some cases, files created at 72dpi can be adjusted to print. Typically, these adjustments result in blurry, ridged, or distorted edges and uneven gradients.

VECTOR ART

  • File Formats: .AI, .EPS, .PDF, .SVG

  • Create art to the size you wish for it to be produced.

  • Outline any type used in the file (https://youtu.be/LYA-zNDRnmo?t=1m3s)

  • Embed any raster art in your file. Embedded raster art should be 300dpi.

  • Choose colors from our Pantone+ Solid Coated Stock Inks list that you would like to have used in your final product. If PMS colors are not specified, our Art Department will choose PMS colors for you.

  • Be sure to save any vector format files to be compatible with Adobe CC.
