4-COLOR PROCESS REQUIREMENTS

Please request a template so that art is setup for the correct layout, size and positioning.

Please see the section Art & Printing Specifications for acceptable files and important information when submitting artwork.
 

When printing 4-Color Process images on plastic, type should be Black to avoid becoming blurry due to movement in registration between colors. The same is true if small type reverses out of a 4-Color Process image or color block. Hard edges may also appear “softened” or blurry due to movement in registration.
 

When printing 4-Color Process images on plastic, please keep in mind that color plates can shift between 1/16th - 1/8th of an inch. This may cause unwanted color halo's around artwork or within knockout areas.
 

4-Color Process art should include all linked images and be at the actual size it is to print. 4-Color Process placed/linked images are not to be any less than 300dpi/ppi.
 

4-Color Process vector artwork can be converted to standard Pantones if accuate colors are provided. Depending on the artwork addtional art charges may be applied. 
 

Be sure the artwork provided iis exactly what is to be produced. Adjustments and changes to the artwork may incur additional costs.
 

There should be no void areas in process. Void areas create hard edges. No 1% or 2% dot or isolated dots.
