General requirements for files
For vector graphics:
* .ai, * .cdr (Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw)
For vector objects, it is necessary to convert all used fonts to curves. In Corel Draw, bitmaps with transparency should be dithered. The number of nodes in a single curve should not exceed 20,000For raster graphics:
* .tiff, * .psd (Adobe Photoshop, Recommended resolution 300dpi)For multipage products (booklets, catalogs, brochures, etc.), layouts should be provided in Adobe PDF format (version up to 1.6).When arranging (or preparing) the imposition of strips (or imposition of printing plates) is done by us:
- The layout is submitted without printer marks, trim lines, bleed lines (if any required, it should be provided as an additional layer), and scales.
- In the case when a publication uses a bleed, it should be accounted for in all the files that make up the layout.
Regarding the transmission of files in other formats – please make sure to call us in advance to confirm if it’s possible and how it can be done.
