The following instructions will help ensure the best possible quality.
- Our system is PC-based. Artwork and Fonts should be PC compatible.
- Special Fonts must be e-mailed in a .ttf or .tt1 format.
- Artwork should be converted to curves (a.k.a. "outlines") before submission.
- Provide the necessary Pantone-Matching-System colors whenever possible to get the closest match for color. Color-matching is available for many colors. If you need exact ink colors, we will need the CMYK levels before processing. This service incurs a $30.00 fee. Some shades of color are not achievable, considering the types of ink we use and the materials they are applied to.
- If you do not have or know what type of artwork you need contact the person that does your business cards or graphics design.
If you get stuck, call our Graphics Department at 1-866-440-2739
