Supplying Print Ready Artwork

We totally understand that getting print ready artwork can be difficult so please read the following information to help you:

Acceptable File Formats: eps, tiff, BMP, Jpeg, ai, pdf  

Programmes: Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat and indesign.

Please supply any fonts and images that are linked or in use within the layout files of your document

Vector artwork is absolutely ideal and we love vectored illustrator files. We also ask that any images and/or Photoshop files are in RGB format, 300dpi at full size and have a transparent background.

We rather helpfully can also supply you with a range of scaled templates that have print areas, all available in pdf or MS Word format. You can download the one you need from our dropbox site here.
