Artwork Requirements
Electronic Logo Artwork: email to sales@logopro.com.au
At LogoPro we prefer files in a 'PC' format. We use eps files for logos. If you are in a PC environment, there are programs that can convert a logo to an eps format; such as Illustrator or Corel Draw. Our main 'PC' programs are Adobe Illustrator CS (v11) and Adobe Photoshop. Artwork will be accepted either on a PC CD or via an eps email format.
Preferred format is a compatible Illustrator .ai or .eps vector format. All artwork including fonts should be converted to outlines/vector curves. If the file contains spot colours these should be identified as Pantone PMS swatches from the swatch palette.
Where halftone images or rastor files are part of the artwork ensure that resolution matches the size of the desired output. Photoshop files should be CMYK and saved in a .eps format. It is important to include all imbedded photoshop images with Illustrator files.
DO NOT SUPPLY artwork in an Acrobat PDF file or PC file formats such as MS Word, PowerPoint or doc, bmp, & gif files. PDF files are recommended for viewing purposes only. As a last resort we can accept a Bromide (ideally large) with PMS colours supplied.
Photographic Images: for 4 colour process printing/CMYK
File formats preferred include: EPS, tiff; jpg (with high compression). We suggest that large images (e.g. pictures over 3.5 megabytes in size) be sent to us on CD or DVD (not via email). The original scanned image must have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi.
Mouse Mats vary in artwork requirements, depending upon their design. Please contact us regarding the required file formats for your chosen design.
DO NOT SUPPLY hard copy artwork as letterheads, business cards or printed brochures, as these do not have high enough resolution to reproduce for the branding of most promotional merchandise and usually have to be redrawn at additional cost.
Embroidered Artwork: Multicolour embroidery requires a good quality print of the intended artwork or computer file in any of the above formats to gain an accurate stitch count. No multicolour embroidery work will be quoted until this has been received.
Artwork Problems: If you are unable to provide the artwork required by LogoPro, please contact your advertising agency, graphic designer or printer - they regularly work in the preferred file formats and should be able to help.
