Sending Images and Logos for use on Printed Items
We often need logos and images sent to us to use in your artwork. Depending on what we are creating for you will depend on what file format we need supplied.  


Logos 
If you don’t have a logo we can create one for you. If you have a logo but it isn’t in the right format we can advise you a price to re-create it. The best format to send us logos for any print work is an outlined vector file. File formats include .pdf, .ai and .eps.


Images
Printing requires high resolution images. When supplying images for print please keep in mind the final project size and the mage size being supplied. Low resolution images will print poorly. If you are unsure please let us know and we can check the size of the image you have supplied is suitable for print. Images can be sourced from many places including online stock libraries, your camera and if requested we can even source and supply images for you. Please note images obtained from online may have copyright attached to them and usually are low resolution as they have been optimized for using online.

Common file formats for images to be supplied for print are jpg and tiff.


Files
If you are wanting us to print artwork already created please supply high resolution press ready PDF’s. Press ready includes supplying colour in CMYK, includes bleed and fonts. If you are a designer or print broker and want to supply press ready artwork all the time you may be eligable to receive our wholesale rates. Please insure to email us your company details and we can send this to you.


Did you Know?

One of the most common sizes for a brochure is a DL? Why?

Well wether it be a tri-fold A4 to DL or a postcard like DL flyer it fits into a standard paper size. This means printing is much more cost effective as there is no stock wastage. Also it means when sending out via post it fits into a standard size envelope and mail box and costs the standard postage costs for a letter sent via Australia Post. Of course other size brochures and flyers are possible, but this is some food for thought when thinking up your next marketing campaign.


The Good Old Fashioned Mailbox Drop Still Works...


A recent study shows... more consumers prefer to be contacted by direct mail outs than all other media methods combined. Today email marketing is saturating our inboxes so why not try something different?

Letterbox drops can expand your customer base and encourage repeat business...

YOU’D BE CRAZY NOT TO ADD A LETTERBOX DROP TO YOUR ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN
