EMAIL AND UPLOAD
       YOUR FILES TO US...

Send up to 10 files at a time

SUBMITTING ARTWORK
  • If you are preparing your own files for output, please use our digital file guidelines. All files can be uploaded to here on the form to the right.. It helps if you send along a colour proof of what your sign should look like just in case. A JPEG or pdf file is acceptable for that.
     

DIGITAL FILE GUIDELINES
  • Vector art is preferable for most forms of output, such as vinyl lettering and art. All vector files should be saved in standard (.EPS) or (.AI) Adobe Illustrator and should be fully editable for scaling, rotating, etc. Sometimes (.PDF) files work as vector files too.

  • We also accept JPEG / EPS / PSD / TIFF format that have a good resolution (300 DPI or higher)

  • Artwork does not have to be full size, but should be proportional to final output dimensions... We can't print a one inch .GIF of a monkey into a 6 foot gorilla!

  • All fonts should be converted into outlines.
     

COLOUR MANAGEMENT
  • Please use the Pantone Matching System (PMS) whenever possible in order to achieve the best color matching with your file. Understand that color is device dependent and the same PMS color will look different depending on the machine and substrate material.

  • Our ink jet printers use four colour process and some Pantone colors are impossible to match, issues of that nature will be dealt with on a case by case basis.

  • Rich black should be used for large black printed areas using this formula:  
    C-100%, M-100%, Y-100%, K-100%.

  • Color images saved as TIFFs and colored vector images may vary in appearance.

Shawn put the name of our new dentist on our front door. He was prompt and did a great job! Will definitely use his services again.
