If you prefer to produce your own artwork, here are just a few simple guidelines we would require you to follow when supplying artwork.
We can accept artwork files in the following formats:
Adobe InDesign CS3 | Adobe Illustrator CS3 | Corel Draw X3
Microsoft Word | Adobe PDF (Press Quality Hi-Res)
Adobe Photoshop CS3 | Tiff, EPS or JPEG (300dpi Resolution)
If supplying a word document which contains images in the file, please also supply the images separately. Our in-house studio can advise on the best way to set up your documents.
When supplying artwork files please ensure you supply a hard copy proof of the artwork for checking against, as sometimes fonts and positioning can change.

FONTS:
All fonts used should be embedded or converted to outlines (InDesign, Illustrator) or curves (Corel Draw) in your document before sending the file(s).
SUPPLYING FILES:
Files can be emailed, or supplied on CD, Zip Disk, Memory Stick or linked to FTP Sites.
PROOFING:
We always submit a proof on all new jobs or amendments.
All Proofs must be signed off before we can proceed to print.

BLEED:
If your artwork needs to be printed to the very edge of the finished size document, any images, colour etc needs to ‘bleed’ off the edge of the material by at least 3mm. This bleed will be printed, but then trimmed off.
Example: Business Card with 3mm bleed off all edges.
Artwork Size = 91mm x 61mm
Finished size when trimmed = 85mm x 55mm
