To ensure the best possible large format prints, please follow these guidelines.

Design fees may apply if files need additional work to become print ready

Acceptable file formats

  • Indicate the scale used for art creation.

Bleed and safe area

  • Provide bleed on all layouts, between 1/4” – 1”.
  • When designing for banners or large window graphics, keep critical elements, such as logos or type, at least 2” away from all edges.

Color space

  • Build exclusively as CMYK.
  • Apply Pantones as spot colors where needed.
  • RGB/Hex values are not acceptable for print.
  • Please note, we cannot match CMYK values – these will print as is.

Fonts, styles and links

  • Outline type or supply fonts.
  • Supply or embed any illustrations or graphics linked in the layout.
  • Images should be a minimum of 100 ppi at 100% of final size. If the file is built at an alternate scale make sure resolution is appropriate to reduced scale. Example, at 1:4 scale resolution should read 400 ppi in the links palette
