GENERAL INFORMATION & ART REQUIREMENTS


 

ARTWORK

  • We strongly recommend all artwork be computer generated to assure the best printing results. We suggest the use of high contrast, clean and defined edges, straight typefaces, and avoid type smaller than 7 pt., or detailed artwork in small imprint areas. Our Art Department supports the Mac OSX versions of the following software programs: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, CorelDraw. Acceptability of artwork files in PDF format is subject to review by our Art Department.

  • Layouts:: we strongly recommend the artwork submitted be laid out the way it should appear when printed. If no layout or related instructions are provided, we reserve the right to use the art provided as we see fit, using our best judgment.

  • File formats:: Within our line of products, different items are available in different printing methods. The requirements for each method are as follows:

    For SPOT COLOR PRINTING (Screen, Pad) or LASER ENGRAVING, we require files in Vector EPS format, with type outlined (solid colors only, no halftones or gradations).

    For 4-COLOR PROCESS DIGITAL PRINTING, we require files in TIF format, CMYK color mode, with a minimum resolution of 300 ppi, sized at 100%, flat and with extra bleed if needed (the format for Spot Printing – see above – is also accepted).


  • Artwork Submission Via e-mail:

  • Send to: art@innovation-line.com. You MUST refer to your Purchase Order Number in the subject title of the message. Attach the artwork file(s) and include a contact name and phone number, and layout instructions (if any) in the body of the message.


  • Art Review

    Not sure if your art will meet our requirements for imprint? We will be happy to review your art at no charge to you. Email it to artreview@innovation-line.com. Please put item number and imprint method desired, if other than the one referenced for the item. We will review your art and respond back to you within 48 hours with any suggestions. However, please keep in mind we will not use this art as reference and it will not in anyway substitute a proof for an order. You will have to resubmit proper artwork when placing your order.

    FTP upload instructions:

  • Please follow theses instructions to upload your artwork to our FTP server. First, make sure the files are zipped or stuffed and are named after your PO# (ie: PO#12345.zip or PO#ABCD.sit). Using a FTP client program, log in to:

    Once logged in, you may begin uploading. Once the upload is successfully completed, you must send an e-mail to art@innovation-line.com (referring to your PO# in the subject title) to advise that your artwork is now available in our server.


  • Digital Media:

  • We also accept Mac OS X formatted CD- and DVD-ROMs.
