How to design and send your artwork to us

Here you will find useful information on how we need to receive you artwork. Artwork related issues are often a prime cause for lost time in the production process, so it is very important that you send us your artwork in the correct format.

The prices we offer in our quotation include one artwork review and a final opportunity for you to review your artwork before we go into production. Any amendments you make to your artwork AFTER we have sent you a proof may lead to additional repro charges to cover the additional time required to get your artwork to "print quality".

Steps

1) Open and print our Artwork Completion Cehecklist (please send this with your designs).

2) Access Our Design Templates for your Design application (you will need to submit designs in these).

3) Send your final artwork files to us via email, CD / DVD disc, or our simple to use FTP facility YouSendIt. Please see >> here << for more information on how to FTP your artwork to us. 

Our guide includes information on scanning, RGB versus CMYK, file resolutions, and adding colour.  It also includes (on page 5) specific information on preparation of artwork for pressed discs (i.e. typically quantities of 500+ ), including use of CMYK versus Pantone for your CD/DVD. 

We are always available by email and telephone so please feel free to contact us with any questions.
