How do I send my artwork files for printing?

admin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 14:00:29 +0000

For files 10mb or under you can email them to info@originzone.co.uk. Files larger than 10mb can be sent via our website

What type of file formats do you accept?

admin — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 14:00:26 +0000

PDF format files are our preferred choice. PDF’s must be ‘print ready’ with bleed, crop marks and fonts embedded.
Quark Xpress 7 or Adobe InDesign CS4 files are acceptable if ‘collected for output’ (QuarkXpress) or ‘packaged’ (Adobe Indesign) so that all the files and fonts are included. Pages must be set up to the correct size with bleed.
Illustrator files are acceptable, ideally saved in .EPS format. Bleed and crop marks must be included and all fonts converted to outlines.
Photoshop or similar files should be supplied as 300dpi CMYK, TIF files with LZW off. Highest quality JPG is acceptable, bleed and crop marks must be included.
Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Publisher files are acceptable but a file handling charge applies to convert these to print ready files.

Additional notes:

PDF files

When creating PDF files please note that books or booklets over four pages must not be supplied as spreads. Always create a PDF containing individual pages. This does not affect your original Quark or InDesign files which may have been set up as spreads.

Bleed

If your artwork requires bleed (i.e. if it extends off the edge of the page) you must allow 3mm bleed. We also recommend that any text is kept at least 5mm away from the edge of the page.

Photos

Photographic images should be supplied as 300dpi CMYK.

Images

For lithographic print, images must be supplied in Pantone Spot Colours or CMYK format if full colour.

For digital print, ideally images should be supplied in CMYK format.
