Standard File Prep

Guideline Requirements

To ensure your project moves through our pre-press department smoothly, please provide your artwork according to the following standards:

• Vector Formats: Adobe Illustrator (.ai), EPS, or PDF (vector based) are preferred.
• Fonts: Please convert all text/fonts to outlines or curves.
• Resolution: For raster images (like .psd or .jpg), files should be at least 300 DPI at the requested print size.
• Colors: Please define colors using Pantone Solid Coated (PMS) standards for accurate matching.
• Lines: Line weights should be no thinner than 1pt for screen printing processes.

Why Proper Prep Matters

Files that meet these standards prevent delays in production and reduce additional graphic design charges. If you are unsure if your file meets these requirements, contact our design team, and we can perform a pre-flight check.
