Preferred File Formats
A high-resolution PDF with embedded fonts and graphics is ideal, but in most cases we can work with whatever file format you have. Other Preferred file formats include…
- INDD Adobe Indesign
- AI Adobe Illustrator
- PSD Adobe PhotoShop
- EPS Encapsulated Post Script
- TIF Tagged Image
- QXP or QXD QuarkXpress
When submitting layout files that are not PDF files, be sure to include all fonts and graphics with your files. Images should be CMYK and 300 dpi (dots per inch) at the final size in the layout. Use TIFF or EPS file formats to achieve the best color quality and sharpness of image.
Many common software programs are not well suited for the printing industry, but with some additional effort we can usually convert them to a usable format. If you are ready for us to print but not sure about your artwork file, send it to us and we will examine it.
