How to Supply Artwork

If you are providing your own artwork, before you send it, please take time to work your way through our checklist, as this will avoid any unnecessary delays or additional costs. If your artwork doesn't meet all of the points raised below, you may find errors in your final print that we cannot be held responsible for

Lithographic Printing

• File should be supplied as a press ready PDF

• File is centred 1-up on a page. Leave the imposition to us

• All colours are CMYK

• All fonts are converted to curves / outlines / paths

• Images are at 300dpi resolution

• Layers are flattened (inc. transparencies)

• Elements intended to print to the very edge of your finished job, such as backgrounds, should extend 3mm beyond the trimmed edge

• Text and important graphics should be placed at least 3mm inside the trimmed edge

Don’t worry if you are still unsure about sending your artwork in the correct format, as we are always here to help. We can accept various other types of file, just send what you have and we’ll let you know if it is suitable. If there are any problems, we will do our best to guide you through and advise you how to change it.
