File Formatting Standards:

  • Images should be saved as 8-bit, in RGB Adobe 1998 color mode, in a file format that can be read by Photoshop (.psd, .tif, .jpg, .eps, .pdf). Delete all extra channels, layers and paths. A flattened file is ideal.
  • Resolution of images should be saved at 200 DPI @ final image size.  Lower resolutions may be acceptable depending on print size, image content and viewing distance.
  • Inspect files at a high magnification. Gaps and misaligned objects are very obvious in large prints. Dust spots from scans may not show on screen unless you zoom in and look.
  • Files not pre-flighted are subject to $125 per hour for any additional digital time required to get your order ready to print. 
  • One 8x10 proof print is available for your approval before final run on any quantity orders. Additional tests are $5.00 per print.
