PRE-DESIGNED FILE SPECS:

Customers who wish to send us pre-designed files can do so. Please be sure to visit our sections on HOW TO PREPARE FILES and our TEMPLATE DOWLOADS page before submitting your own graphics.  If you are wanting a custom size product such as a banner then you probably already know what size you want. The document dimensions should be set up to real size in actual inches. IE: If you want a 20'x4' banner, then your pre-designed file should actually measure 240"x48". Retractable Banner Stands are 33.25"x79". A-Frame panels are 24"x36". Please do not include any bleed, leaders, crop marks, registration marks, etc, unless the image is layered (such as a psd file). We will take care of all that. We recommend a MINIMUM resolution of 350 PPI (pixels per inch). We can accept psd, jpg, tif, pdf, eps, ai, and some other file formats. Please embed fonts and images. If you have a question about the file you are sending please contact us. If you are concerned about the color of your file, please visit our FAQ & Policies section. Files may be emailed if smaller than 10MB, or uploaded through FTP if larger than 10MB.

DESIGN SERVICES:

Our full color digital printing process lets us print anything we want, or more importantly, anything YOU want. Some people don't know exactly what they want, and that is OK! We offer free consultation services with our specialists who are not only designers, but experienced with marketing as well. Maybe you sketched out exactly what you want your layout to look like. Great, we can put that together for you! Maybe all you know is that you like the color green. Well, I'm sure we'll have advice for you on that one! So give us a call and talk to us (1-800-799-1009). It certainly can't hurt anything. We'll give you advice and even a quote right over the phone. The following is a breakdown of some design tiers that will give an idea of how we charge.
