Help us print your job the way you want it!
Please use the list below for efficient production of your project:
 
Provide all fonts with your job, including those used in EPS graphics.

All Mac supported PostScript Type 1 printing and screen fonts must be supplied with your files. 

If you're using PC fonts, please supply a list of all fonts used in your files.
 
Provide all linking art (TIFF, EPS, etc.).

Make sure the linking art is made with an appropriate resolution. (a.) 300 ppi for continuous-tone images  (b.) 1200 ppi for line-art images

Make sure filenames of linking art match those called for in your layout files.

Clearly label any elements that are "For Position Only."

Make sure the document size of each layout file is the same as the desired trim size.

Make sure any element that is intended to bleed actually extends beyond the document edges. (Our standard bleed is 1/8-inch.)
 
Provide hard copy (such as laser prints) or a PDF with your job. Print your lasers at 100% size if possible.

Eliminate unused elements from the pasteboard or from hidden layers in your files.

Eliminate unused colors from each file. Eliminate duplicate colors in each file.

Eliminate files from your disk that you do not intend to be part of your project.

Do not define any rules as "hairline." If you want a very file rule, set it to 1/2-point.
 
Set your colors to CMYK or spot colors, not RGB.
