File Guidelines
Vector Art

CorelDraw ... save as version 10 or earlier

Adobe Illustrator ... save as version 8 or earlier

Please convert all text or symbols to curves and send the .TTF (TrueType Font) used.
Please use spot colors for fills (PMS colors). Mixed CMYK colors look different from one screen to the next.

PMS numbers give us a more accurate indication of the final color required.

Any separate lines must be made into actual vector outlines. Strokes will not convert into a

cuttable object, so please convert all strokes to outlines as well.

Raster Art

Any embedded TIF, PSD, or other bitmap must be sent as well (if to be included on the sign).
Save files as an .EPS if embedded.
Raster images may also be sent as a separate file.
Do Not Send .GIF's. These are usually low resolution images for internet purposes.
.JPG files are better if saved with no compression.

Make sure image will be a minimum of 72 d.p.i. at full printed size.

High resolution images (300 d.p.i. +) and CMYK colors will yield the best results.
