File Setup and Output Information
The imageable area for the papers we currently offer is listed below. Please note that printing edge to edge (bleeds) is not an option.

Color Guidelines
For the largest possible color gamut, images should be designed in the RGB color mode.

For your fine art print project to be color managed, we must receive files that have been color managed. This means that your files must contain the profile of your working space - either Adobe RGB (1988), ColorMatch RGB, or sRGB. For best results, we recommend that your monitor be calibrated with a hardware device that documents the state of the monitor.

We do not make edits to the files you have created. If your file does not contain your working space profile, your fine art print project will not be color managed.

Resolution and Size Guidelines
For best results, your image files should contain 180-360 ppi of un-interpolated resolution at final print size. Your file must be at final print size when it is received.

360 ppi at final print size is the maximum resolution accepted. Resolution as low as 180 ppi is considered acceptable, however, we do not recommend having less than 180 ppi.

Font Guidelines
When supplying files from drawing programs (Illustrator, Freehand, Corel), convert all fonts to curves/outlines and send as an .eps file. Remember to check stroke settings when converting fonts to curves to ensure best conversion.

To ensure proper output from desktop publishing software (InDesign, Quark), all fonts and support graphics must be supplied.

Files from Digital Cameras
Native digital camera files are not considered print-ready for this service. Files taken directly from a digital camera seldom contain accurate color profiles for color management and are not cropped or sized correctly for this service.
