Order/ Send Files/ File Setup

To assure quality results use the following checklist when preparing your digital files for graphic production.

Files are accepted in the following formats: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, QuarkXPress and Macromedia Freehand.
Portions of the document MUST match the desired final size and cropping is clearly marked.
Save each layout as its own file or page.
Artwork must allow for finishing (sleeves, grommets, frames, etc.)
Any image/text that should not be stitched through must be far enough away from the edges to accommodate stitching of sleeves and or hems.
When paneling will be required consider how this will effect the art.
When sending QuarkXPress, Illustrator or Freehand documents, be sure to include all support files i.e. Linked Images, Fonts, etc.
To avoid confusion ONLY send files needed to produce the job.
Support files MUST NOT be embedded. All files must be saved in an editable format and linked.
Raster images must be PhotoShop compatible.
All images are saved at the appropriate resolution:

Dye-Sub-fabric: 100-200 dpi at (100%) final print size.
Large Format Vinyl: 100-150 dpi at (100%) final print size.
Grand Format Vinyl: 100 dpi at (50%) final print size.

DO NOT resize lower resolution files to a higher resolution.
Include both printer and screen fonts for all files or convert all text to outlines. True type and Multiple Master fonts must be converted to paths or they will not print.
To insure accurate color matching, specify Pantone (PMS) colors. When Pantone equivalent colors are not available, proofs are strongly recommended to review color.
Create and view PhotoShop files in the appropriate color mode. Digital Photographic = RGB, Dye-Sub fabric, Grand Format, and Inkjet= CMYK.
Submit files in appropriate file formats. Vector Art: Native file format or as an EPS (DO NOT submit Quark EPS files. Raster Art: Native file format or as an EPS or Tiff (DO NOT submit JPEGs, GIFs, PICTs, etc.).
