Artwork

 


 

All Art Should be accompanied with the correct PMS
color and location to help expedite your job!

Camera Ready

Perfect! The best art you can provide us with is BLACK on WHITE background. It has CRISP LINES and it is ready for film.

 

Indicating Color(s)

Arrows can be used, but draw the arrows on a copy and be sure indications are specific. To show us where you want the colors placed, you can make a copy and color it in or use tracing paper to make an overlay indicating color placement.

 

 

Photocopies,
Business Cards,
Menus or Letterheads

Although these items are useable, they often require extra work. Contrasting colors are the easiest to work with. It is also advisable to provide the largest possible example of your artwork or logo since detail may be lost over emphasized with enlargements.

Garmets

Garments can be provided as artwork. However, fabrics stretch and shrink with time which can distort the image. We will do the best we can to come as close to the original as possible.

Fax

A fax is a great tool to show us where you want items or send us a rough sketch or ideas; however, it is often difficult to use faxes as camera ready artwork due to the rough edges. Faxes may distort the image's size and shape.
