| ART REQUIREMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here are basic guidelines for artwork submission that follow the industry standards. It is important that all artwork supplied comply with these requirements. Most of the information in this page is targeted at graphic artists, designers and art directors. If you do not have knowledge of desktop design, or do not have the software(s) required, we suggest that you seek the assistance of a printing professional for additional help with your artwork. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPUTER GENERATED ARTWORK This is the best alternative for submitting your art. Digital artwork guarantees the highest quality of imprint possible. We operate on Adobe Illustrator (9.0) platform and accept files saved for the following applications: Adobe Illustrator 9.0: Convert all type to "outlines"; include all placed EPS or TIF files in the same directory; Note: the native file format for this version is PDF what may require conversion to EPS and, consequently, additional charges may apply; to avoid this charge, save the files as version 8.0 or earlier); Adobe Photoshop 7.0.1: For 4-Color Process: files must be saved as TIF, EPS or BMP formats, in CMYK mode, at minimum resolution of 300 dpi with print size set at 100%; for silkscreen imprint: each color should be separated in one file with registration marks (and trapping, if applicable) and files must be Black-&- White, TIF format, in Bitmap mode (50% threshold) at 1200 dpi; Macromedia FreeHand 7.0: convert all type to "curves"; include all placed EPS and/or TIF files in the same directory (see above for EPS and TIF formats specs); Adobe Pagemaker 6.5: send all fonts (screen & print) used in the document; include all EPS and/or TIF files used in the same directory (see above for EPS and TIF formats specs); Note: PDF is an alternate format which may be used when the above requirements cannot be met; note that it may require additional conversion and, consequently, additional charges may apply; Attention: any artwork created on different operating systems (IBM/PC compatible, Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, etc.) must be converted to EPS, TIF or BMP format before submitted (we cannot perform this conversion). We DO NOT accept computer generated artwork in any IBM/PC compatible, Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000 native application, ie: MS Word, MS Office, MS Publisher, PowerPoint, CorelDraw, etc. (latest versions of Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator are exempt). Please note that due to increasing problems with viruses and anonymous spam email, we now have a formal set of requirements for ARTWORK SUBMISSION. If submitting artwork via e-mail, the above guidelines must apply and the following procedure should be followed: 1. Refer to your Estimate Number or P.O. number in the subject title of the e-mail message; 2. Include a description of the file(s) attached (file format, application, version), the Clients company's name, and a contact name with phone number in the body of the message; 3. Then, attach the artwork file(s) or the directory(ies) to the message and send to: art@statpromo.com. Note: to avoid corruption of attachments while in transit, convert the file(s) or the directory(ies) using "DropStuff" (if working on Mac; save as .SIT – note: do not submit .SEA or .IMG) or "WinZip" (if working on PC; save as .ZIP – note: do not submit .EXE or .SEA). IF YOUR EMAIL DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THESE REQUIREMENTS, IT CANNOT BE PROCESSED AND NO FURTHER ACTION CAN BE TAKEN. If your e-mail complies with all requirements, we will review the file(s) and quickly reply notifying you if the artwork is acceptable. Note: due to the variety of applications, platforms, servers, connections and ISPs available on the Internet, we are not responsible for undeliverable, incomplete, incompatible and/or corrupt artwork received via e- mail. We also accept artwork saved in Mac OS formatted Iomega Zip 100Mb disks and/or CD-ROMs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TRADITIONAL ARTWORK If you are not able to provide digital files, you may submit your artwork as "camera-ready"; that means it must be... Black and white line art, color separated with all necessary traps and registration marks and output at 100% of the actual imprint size in PHOTO QUALITY reproduction. Artwork from a laser printer, reproduced on office copiers and/or transmitted via fax is NOT camera-ready artwork. We will accept Laser Quality output as camera ready only if it is 200% or larger of the actual imprint size (up to 8 1/2" x 11"), black and white, color separated with registration marks and trapping (when applicable). We can assist you in creating camera ready artwork for $40.00 per hour. If no layout instructions are supplied, we reserve the right to arrange copy and logos at our discretion. Approved proofs are required and they are final. We are not responsible for the quality of imprinted products produced from artwork that does not meet the above specifications. A layout proof approval form is supplied upon request (additional charges may apply). Additional approval will be required if the artwork does not comply with our requirements. Production time does not begin to run until the artwork proof approval form is acknowledged by you and faxed back to us. These specs are subject to change without notice; please, check the General Information page or consult your account representative for more info. ___________________________________________________________________________ Custom Overseas Sourcing As a result of our extensive factory and agent relationships in the Far East, STAT Promo Solutions is able to and in fact specializes in sourcing custom products not featured in our catalog and in working on OEM programs based on the specs that you provide.
