SOFTWARE/ FILE COMPATIBILITY:

We prefer EPS formats for vector art and TIF for raster art as they are universally accepted in most of our applications.

We also accept file extensions in any of the following programs:
Corel V8-V11
Adobe Illustrator 10-CS
Adobe Photoshop 7.0
FlexiSign Pro 7.5

If you cannot provide your artwork in these formats or if you still are unclear about what to give us, don't hesitate to give Best Signs a call! 1-800-50-SIGNS.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT FILE RESOLUTION:
Most files types are made of pixels. Pixels are single units of color that, when viewed together, make up an image.(they look little squares) The more pixels in an image, the better it looks. By better we mean a crisp image with refined transitions between tone and color. An image with low resolution contains fewer pixels, resulting in a jagged look.

The way we measure quality is by setting the number of pixels in an image. It's called dpi (dots per inch) or ppi (pixels per inch). Please save your image to the final size of what we will be printing that artwork at with the final resolution being set at 72 dpi. For instance, if you need a 4'x8' sign printed, do not provide image artwork the size of a business card or letterhead. Your artwork should be saved 48'x 96" (4'x8') at 72 dpi.

FONTS:
All fonts used to create the text should be sent with artwork, including fonts embedded in placed images. Illustrator or Corel documents should be converted to outlines/curves. Do not use your type style formatting to bar choose bold, italic, etc. It will not print correctly.

SIZE AND MEDIA:
Files should not exceed 50MB for uploading to this site. In the event that your files exceed 50MB, we accept CD-ROM, DVD, Zip Drive 100 or 250.
