Files should be created using the CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) setting.  Black text should be 0% C 0% M 0% Y 100% K. We prefer that files be created using a vector based program such as Illustrator or In Design, but we can support many other programs. Files should be saved as PDF files set to “high quality print”. To print an image that extends to the edge of the printed sheet (bleed), the file should be set ¼” larger than the printed piece. We are happy to answer any questions, or to help you with the initial set up of your files… just ask!
