Production Tips
- Make sure your ad is built to the correct size and that width and height orientation is correct. If you’re confused feel free to ask your sales rep for help.
- Please use art in your ads that is scanned at a resolution of 200 to 400 dpi at 100% of its original size. Using lower resolution artwork will cause it to reproduce badly. Please do not use artwork taken from a website, these are generally 72 dpi and will look very bad in print.
- If building or submitting a color ad, please save it in CMYK color mode. If the ad is black and white please check that all art within the ad is in grayscale color mode
- When making tonal adjustments to grayscale photographs, a good range to shoot for is 4-5% black for highlights (lightest areas) through 85% black for shadows (darkest areas).
