Please note the following when considering 4 Colour Process Advertising:

  • Photography is an additional cost. We can help you with this if you wish. Remember: The better the quality of the photograph - the better the finished printed advertisement.
  • If you are sending camera-ready ads, please provide them as follows:
    1. .eps file format (postscript interpreted)
    2. CMYK colour mode
    3. 300 dpi resolution
    4. fonts to outline (mac) or curves (pc)
  • When fonts are not converted to outlines or curves, we cannot guarantee a font match.
  • Other accepted formats are: .pdf (Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format). .ai (Adobe Illustrator - vector format) with the same specs stated above. .jpg and .tif files are also accepted with the same specs.
  • For files being sent to us requiring changes, an .eps is best. We will do our best to match all fonts used in your ads. Always include a low resolution .pdf file for visual reference to ensure accuracy of your ad.
  • Files (10 MB) can be sent by email. Larger files can be compressed with WinZip or Stuff-It and emailed if size allows. If files are too large and cannot be compressed, they can be uploaded to an ftp site. Instructions will be emailed if needed.

Colour will set you apart from the rest!!
