The preferred format for layout is Freehand (any version). Panels should be made up to 100% (one page per panel) and 13mm bleed is necessary. All artwork is required in PC Format.
Although artwork in CorelDraw can be read, it usually needs some kind of conversion prior to production. Please call + 27 11 704 1218 for advice on saving artwork from CorelDraw or Photoshop.
All fonts should be converted to curves with a Fonts folder also on the CD as a backup to the fonts converted.
Scans should be saved as CMYK .tiff or .eps files.
Logos: for large format, please use vector shapes (supplied in Freehand or Illustrator or as an .eps.) .Jpg and .gif files downloaded from the Internet are not suitable for print and become indistinguishable when enlarged, even to just A4 size.
Very specific colours should be specified as pantones. It is not guaranteed that pantones can be matched 100% as the process for printing exhibition panels uses CMYK ink.
Please supply a hard-copy proof or pdf file of the entire layout when submitting your CD to us.
All artwork is to be submitted 10 working days prior to the exhibition date.
