  1. Scan/Save

    Scanning resolution is usually twice the output line screen. A resolution of 300 dpi or close is ideal when scanning color and grey scale materials. B/W art should be scanned not higher than 600 dpi. Text should be at 400 dpi. Always scan at 100% of the final size of your document.

  2. Color Modes

    Please convert to and save all your images in either RGB or CMYK mode. RGB is recommended.

  3. Bleeds

    A bleed occurs when the ink prints to the very edge of the paper. For bleeds, you must extend your artwork beyond the border page by 1/8 inch.
