Good quality graphics are one of the fundamental requirements for the decoration of your logo or message on any promotional products.Whilst JPEG, PDF, .TIF/F and GIF files are great for proofing and as a guide, they pose significant problems when trying the replicate them. Made up of "bits" (Bitmap) these files cannot be used for colour separation and becoming very pixelated or jagged when enlarged.The art file of preference is 'Vector' based. These have graphics that are created with the use a mathematical algorithm and can be resized without loss of quality. Separating colours is an easy process when using these files.
File types that are
Vector based include ".EPS", ".AI" (from Adobe Illustrator), ".CDR" (from Corel Draw). These must be "native" or created in Vector based programs. (i.e. a Jpeg file saved in Corel Draw will not become a vector file)
Ideally, logo files supplied for decoration should be PC compatible, and should be converted to curves (outlines) to avoid "font mismatching".
When supplying artwork, please be sure to include the PMS Colour/s (Pantone Matching System) for your logo so that colour accuracy can be achieved.
In the event that quality logo artwork is not available, we have the facility to create, or reproduce brand artwork as required. Costing will be quoted on request.
Feel free to contact us to discuss your event specific requirements.
*Some decoration methods (e.g. Embroidery & Full Colour transfers) can use these files if of good quality.
