Artwork Requirements

A custom promotional product is a direct reflection upon your company or organization. We want to ensure your corporate identity is crisp, clean and consistent. Although we use state of the art printing processes, the final product will only look as good as the artwork submitted to us. For these reasons, we list our requirements for submitting artwork below.

To avoid any art delays and/or art charges, we request 'vector' art - which generally is native to Adobe Illustrator created art files. Most often, the file will end in .ai, .eps, .svg or a vector based .pdf

When we are printing digital full color art or embroidering an item, vector art is not required, but high resolution art still is.

If you are not able to send a file in these formats, we do have a full feature art department which can work with and recreate your bitmapped or raster jpeg, tiff, png or non vector pdf and word files. We charge $50 an hour for art conversion and/ or re-draw and the fee is based on time. You will be quoted an art price in advance for your approval.

Workable Artwork Formats

We will accept files created according to our guidelines in the following native applications:

Adobe Illustrator CS3 ® Version 13.0.2 and earlier. This is our primary method for Electronic Art. Convert type to outline, paths or curves, or include necessary fonts.

Macromedia Freehand® Type must be converted to "curves" and file MUST be exported to "Adobe Illustrator EPS" format.

Adobe Photoshop® Photoshop, along with PICT or TIFF images cannot be used as submitted and require redrawing into vector format (line art). Additional art charges may apply for redrawing. If you must send a PICT or TIFF image, please send black & white images to size at 1200 DPI resolution.
