Fonts – If you need to send fonts as outlines or curves (in cases where we do not have font) please inform us of font name and point size in case we need to match it or retype set copy. A faxed copy of artwork for visual reference will help us be certain that artwork opened matches what was originally created. Often programs substitie fonts if the exact original font is not installed.

Unacceptable Artwork

PDF files with embedded Illustrator files are acceptable. Additional example of unacceptable artwork are: Faxes, color Letterheads, Photocopies, Embossed imprints.
Additional Art Charges
Complex pieces or artwork of poor quality may require additional art charges to bring artwork to sufficient quality, strength, or size for final production.
