We will be happy to accept all industry-standard graphic file formats, including Adobe InDesign, QuarkXPress, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Publisher, PDF, TIFF, EPS, and JPG. We regularly work with other file formats as well, so don’t hesitate to contact us if you don’t see your preferred file format listed here.
Your files can be stored indefinitely in your offline storage library.
When you send us your files, please include all the elements needed for production. For some orders, that might be nothing more than one artwork file. For other, more complex orders designed in a page layout application, you should send the page layout file, all supporting graphics, and all the fonts used in the document. Many page layout applications include utilities to gather all of these elements together for you. Please refer to your application’s documentation for more information.
Preflighting is a term borrowed from the aviation industry, which describes the steps a pilot takes prior to flight to ensure the flight will be safe for the passengers on board. Similarly, the files you send are put through a printing preflight process to identify in advance any issues that could affect the quality or delay the production of your print order. Preflighting allows us to eliminate the unexpected!
Our staff will preflight all files submitted through our website and alert you to any issues that could potentially affect the production of your print order.
Yes, corrections can be made at any time. However, please review and proof your work carefully because the best time to make corrections is before your print order is scheduled for production, when there is a minimal effect on the production schedule and budget. (Corrections and alterations requested after production has been scheduled may lead to production delays and increased expenses.)
