What files should you send to achieve top quality prints?

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP:- We support all Photoshop files. If sending an unedited captured image please be sure to embed your device's ICC Profile. If you have already converted to a working space, please embed that profile with your file.

ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR:- Always place a clear non-printing box to the page area. Send to back. (If you do not your file my print out at the wrong scale. Do not work at a large scale, ensure that the work is scaled down, ideally at 1/4 or 1/10 scale. This is because Illustrator cannot create a "preview" for large areas. Ensure that work is created originally @ 9600dpi rather than the default 800dpi as this can create flatness/printing problems. Please flatten any transparency effects to correct resolution. Convert Fonts to outlines.

QUARK EXPRESS:- Please export your Quark File as an EPS and convert fonts to curves/outlines.

CORELDRAW:- Please export as EPS, converting fonts to CURVES/PATHS/OUTLINES.
