Images

 

Vector Images:

 

 Adobe Illustrator/EPS or Freehand/EPS files.

  • Files should be CMYK, Pantone or Mono.
  • All Screen and Printer fonts must be included unless converted to paths or outlines.

  • Any linked bitmap images must be supplied unless embedded.

  • Any die shapes need to be a separate spot colour and set to Overprint.

 


Bitmap Images:

 

Adobe Photoshop files (.psd) or EPS, TIFF or JPEGs

  • Images can be CMYK, Grayscale, Bitmap, Monotone & Duotone. Files containing spot colours/channels should be left as .psd files.
  • Any images supplied as RGB will be converted to CMYK using our ISO output profiles.

  • Where possible, ensure no compression has been applied. Only Maximum Compression should be used on JPEGS.
  • Resolution should be minimum 300dpi. Any images with a lower resolution than this will usually result in poor image quality on output.

  • Any line art should be a minimum 2400dpi.

  • Any artwork supplied in Photoshop must contain bleed. For example, if the file is A4 and requires bleed then the image should be 216mm x 303mm.
