FOUR COLOUR PRINT – CMYK

                All colour artwork and or images must be provided in CMYK(Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black)

                All black and white images must be provided in grayscale colour mode.

                Any printing artwork sent in that contains RGB or Pantone colours will be for your reprint cost.

 

BLACK

4 Colour black for small text is advised against, including lines. We advise you to use standard CMYK BlacK (0,0,0,100)

Black Text should be 100% K only. Solid black backgrounds should be either 100%K or 100% black and 40% cyan, as 4 colour black with white reverse type text are problematic on the printing press.

 

FONTS

All fonts MUST BE CONVERTED TO CURVES in coraldraw or PDF fonts must all be embedded. If fonts are missing in document, and we do pick it up it will be sent back for correction which will also delay your turn around time on printing – should we not pick it up – reprint will be done on your cost.

 

BLEED 

A 3mm bleed is required in order to ensure no images or letters are cut into.

 

FILE FORMATS

We only accept Converted Coral draw files, embedded PDF hi resolution (JPEG LAST OPTION TO SIZE HI RES) – NO MS WORD AND EXCELL FILES.

 

OBJECTS

OBJECTS,FILLS,POWERCLIPS,PATTERNFILLS, TRANSFARENCIES / LENSES, DROP SHADOWS, BITMAPS MUST ALL BE CONVERTED TO 300 DPI CMYK BITMAPS – ANY REPRINT DUE TO THIS WILL BE FOR YOUR COST.

 

IMAGES

                USE only high-resolution good quality images in your document to achieve best print results.

300 Dpi(Dot per inch) preferable for high resolution in printing Litho. Please ensure that that

images used are all CMYK and Grayscale – No RGB bitmaps – Images not sent in this format will be blurred or pixilated badly.
