Disc and file format
information
When supplying artwork all files should be in PDF format.
We can accept files through 'Hard' media such as Zip, 31/2
floppy, CDs and DVDs. Or Electronic media such as FTP and email.
Layout
Please supply
everything 'one up'. It is more successful if you leave us to sort out the
imposition for printing.
Bleed and text
Images, background colours and fills which are intended to
print to the trimmed edge of the page should be extended 3mm beyond the page to
give a bleed (to allow for tolerances in the cutting process).
Text, boxes and other areas you need on you finished job
should ideally be 5mm in from the edges of the page.
Colour Matching
Colours displayed on screen don't often give a good impression
of how something will look when printed. We recommend that colours be specified
using pantone colour swatches rather than reliance being placed on screen
colours.
Photographs & Graphics
Photographs should be scanned for size at 300dpi and saved as
CMYK.
Guaranteed proof reading services
For absolute peace of mind we offer a guaranteed proof reading
service for artwork supplied on disc. For a charge of 10% of the printing price
(minimum charge £16.00+VAT) we will check your job for typographical errors.
With your agreement we will correct any we find. In the unlikely event of a job
which you have paid for us to proof read later being found to contain a
typographical error we will reprint it free of charge.
Proof
Our service includes pdf email proofs. However these are not
colour accurate and there use is limited to content and layout proofing.
If you have any questions about supplying artwork you can call
us on 0845 223 3095
or email sales@sna-printing.co.uk
