We will be very pleased to accept your own artwork and we have compiled some guidelines here for you:

  • We prefer digital artwork set as either an illustrator file (.ai or .eps), CorelDRAW (.cdr), or a pdf
  • Make sure specific fonts are embedded or have been changed to outlines.
  • Photoshop files or jpgs can be acceptable for DIGITAL printing – please make the resolution at least 300dpi. Embed the jpg if you are sending it as part of a pdf.

Screen / Etched / Anodised Printing: Images need to be vectored graphics (see Fig.1). Lines need to be a minimum of 0.5pt (0.1764mm) thick. Half tones or graduate tones are generally unsuitable for these printing process.
