Supplying Artwork

Advice on Supplying Print Ready Files:

  • All artwork should be supplied as a high resolution pdf (300dpi) with trim marks and 3mm bleed.
  • When using Indesign or Illustrator the easiest way to save is to select press quality from the adobe pdf presets in the file menu.
  • Select the marks and bleeds tab and ensure you tick the crop marks box and enter 3mm in the bleed box. Then click export to save the pdf.

Multi-page documents:

  • Ensure the pdf contains single pages and is not saved as reader spreads or printers pairs.
  • Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint or Publisher files must be supplied as pdfs because of font reliability issues.
  • Either use the save as PDF option in the programme, or upload your word file to the FREE conversion site convert.neevia.com to save as a PDF, and send to us.

Note: PDFs from word will not have trim marks or contain bleed.

Proofs:

Because to the fast turnaround by samedayprinting we do not supply a proof. You are responsible for ensuring the files you send us are correct and ready for printing. You can request an email proof at point of ordering (£10 additional charge), but this will affect the turnaround time of the job.
