Artwork Specifications
Providing us the print ready computer files
with correct artwork specifications
for our large format
full-color all-digital printing shop,
will save you time and money for your
graphics imaging. Keep in mind, it always
makes a wise sense to check your print ready
computer files for artwork-designs for any
faulty designs or low resolutions within the
designs and
spellings before sending them to us in
accordance with the artwork specifications. All
corrections or modifications made after the
digital printing stage will add to extra
charges, as we require to redo the entire
graphics imaging process with your corrected
new files.
PC versions of formats supported:
The most convenient way to
send us files is via email to
info@multicolorsigns.com
. In case your
outbound email server may have smaller
limits or if you're sending many files
and/or email proves to be unreliable, you
can also upload files to our secure FTP site
– please contact us
by email
for details. If none of these options are
workable for you, please burn a CD-ROM and
send it to us.
Full Bleeds and layout requirements:
A full bleed is when the color extends from
edge to edge of the final printed graphics
imaging substrate. If your graphics imaging
design or background color is intended to
cover the entire surface of the substrate,
please note that we need a 1/8" (0.125")
bleed around each edge of the substrate. For
example, if you have a 96"x48" (8ft x 4ft)
banner where the color bleeds the banner
edges, you should size your design to 96.25"
x 48.25" as this will allow a 1/8” bleed
around the entire banner.
Other Considerations:
To
ensure high quality digital printing
results, your images and designs should be
saved to 300 dpi at 100% of the
dimensions at which they will print.
Color matching artwork:
When color matching is critical, it is
required that we be informed from up-front
before we begin the process of your order. A
separate color matching charge is also
applicable. In the procedure for color
matching, you would need to provide us with
your previously printed samples if you do
have, so that we can match the color with.
When color matching is required, we would
provide you with physical samples for your
tests/observations and we take an OK
approval from the customer. Job printing
would commence after the approval on color
matching from the customer. For color
matching, the file is required to be a true
vector file like .ai, .cdr etc.
Our large format all-digital printing
process handles standard CMYK mode.
Our advice is to avoid borders for symmetric
view of graphics and if you really want a
border, is to make it a thicker one (more
than o.25" thick). That way a fractional
move during digital printing will be much
less noticeable.
Always spend extra time and look for spell
checks and number corrections in your text
before sending in your artwork to us.
This way you can save
yourself disappointment and extra expense on
your part after digital printing of your
graphics is done.
If your artwork is of
a different size than the requested final
size of the substrate, please include
detailed instructions with your order.
Be sure to save your original designs with
you before sending in the artwork
specifications to us for your
