Vector art is highly recommended for all artwork. This includes Adobe Illustrator (.AI), Encapsulated Post Script (.EPS), Portable Document Format (.PDF), InDesign (Package Files), and PhotoShop.

bleed

Artwork must extend at least 1/8" beyond the die line on each side. Allow for 1/8" print margin inside the die line as well.

fonts

Package all fonts & images. If fonts are included with files, all text must be converted to the outlines. Outlined fonts cannot be changed or edited. Outline fonts ensure no loss in submitted artwork's original appearance.

Artwork submission options include sending files to your Account Executive and/or sending art files via WeTransfer.

colors and

resolution

All artwork must be in CMKY format - RGB is not acceptable. Black and white artwork must be provided in GRAYSCALE format. Keep all files layered and artwork resolution must be at least 300 dpi at 100% in size or there will be a substantial drop in image quality.
