DELIVER PRINT READY FILES CONFIDENTLY

We appreciate quality print-ready files. While not a requirement, following pre-flight procedures adds value to how your project is handled and streamlines the delivery of your job.


Use this checklist to get your print materials delivered faster! (download pdf here):


Artwork

  • Extend all artwork and images at least .125” beyond the finished size.
  • Convert all logos or graphics to outlines if created in vector programs.
  • Ensure no overflowing text/images on the pasteboard.
  • Position and link all images correctly.
  • Keep live type and critical images at least .2” from the trimmed edge.

Fonts

  • Include, embed, or outline all fonts.
  • Use only the fonts intended for output.

Color

  • Convert RGB colors to CMYK; specify Pantone colors as spot colors.
  • Convert all PMS swatches printed in CMYK to CMYK values.
  • Resolve duplicate PMS swatches. (e.g., PMS 289C, 289U, 289CV); Coated (C) vs. Uncoated (U).
  • Delete unused PMS color swatches.
  • Ensure all black text is 100% Black, not CMYK Black (Registration).
  • Specify large black solids and backgrounds as a Rich Black mix.
  • Identify varnishing and special treatment areas as spot colors, if needed.
  • Maintain appropriate total ink density based on stock type. 300% coated, 280% uncoated, 250% newsprint.

Page Specs and Final Review

  • Ensure document dimensions are correct for printing, folding, and trimming.
  • Include trim, fold, and registration marks.
  • Check overprint settings.
  • Supply all pages as single pages, not spreads.
  • Save finished artwork as a press-ready PDF with correct pagination.
  • Proofread and double-check all documents before submission, using tools like Grammarly for efficiency.
