How To Properly Submit Artwork
If your company plans to submit artwork for any
promotional product please follow the guidelines listed below to ensure that imprints look
as clear and crisp as possible. If any of the following guidelines are confusing please
feel free to call the phone number listed at the top of this web page and ask to talk to
anyone in our art and printing department.
Be sure any images that you wanted imprinted on any items are in black on a clean white background.
If you are combining type and graphics, and they have been printed out separately, be sure that every image imprinted on your promotional banners is placed where you like it within the confines of the product's imprint area. It is best to affix or adhere each element into position with spray adhesive or rubber cement to produce a demo. This demo will be used to help demonstrate exactly the way that you want the imprinted product to appear.
When supplying computer-generated art, output to a laser printer with at least 1000 dots per inch. Although most typical office laser printers produce three hundred dots per inch, which is fine for most other applications, it is not high enough resolution for camera-ready art.
Be sure you have marked it for color either on a photocopy of the original or on the original itself in non-reproducible pen or pencil otherwise the artwork will most likely be unuseable.
If artwork for the imprints contains complicated separations of colors, you'll need to supply a separate artwork for each color: Many graphics packages offer this ability.
