Print Digital Submission Specs
Digital Advertisement Submission Requirements
Instructions:
Build pages to trim size of publication. Extend bleeds 1/8” beyond trim. Convert all RGB color to CMYK. Submit all elements at 100%. DO NOT nest EPS files into other EPS files. Include all fonts used in any graphics. DO NOT stylize fonts, No TrueType fonts accepted. DO NOT USE Mac system fonts (Chicago, Geneva, etc.) or Microsoft Outlook fonts (Tahoma, Impact, etc.). Four-color solids should not exceed SWOP density of 280%, maximum of 300%. If submitting postscript files embed all fonts. If submitting application files include all elements of the file (fonts, images/scans, logos/artwork). When using Freehand or Illustrator, convert all fonts to outlines or paths. If trapping is applied, we recommend at least default of .25pt. Identify spot/custom colors as ‘SPOT’ or ‘PROCESS’ depending on desired result. Line art should be 1pt or heavier. Images and logos from Web sites are NOT usable for print ads
IMPORTANT NOTE - HARD COPY PROOFS
Final approved hard copy (proofs) needs to accompany all submitted digital files. Whether submitting negs, digital files or electronically sending (ftp or email) you MUST send a color proof for color ads and a black and white proof or hard copy (fax is ok for b/w) for b/w ads. We need to be able to see what the ads are supposed to look like, and AdNet and the publisher will not take responsibility for ads that do not turn out correctly if proofs were not supplied. Please note: for best quality color ads, iris proofs (digital color proofs) must be supplied. A color laser print out will not correctly duplicate press colors. AdNet and the publisher will not be responsible for errors in color printing if color iris proofs are not supplied.
