Artwork in Four Steps

Want an easy-to-understand guide about how to get your artwork to us and what we need? Easy. Follow the below instructions and everything will be sorted.

 

1. Create your artwork

This part is crucial. Please ensure that you are totally happy with what you will be giving to us. We can advise on how to make any required changes if needed or can occasionally work some magic on sub-standard artwork, but as a rule of thumb we can’t work miracles. If your artwork is bad, your printing results will be equally as bad, but we’re here to help whenever you need guidance in getting your artwork over the line.

 

2. Contact us

Get in contact with us to double-check that your artwork ticks all the required boxes. We ask that all artwork be submitted in Illustrator .EPS or Adobe Photoshop .PSD file’s @ 300DPI formats. Explain to us exactly what you’re after with your artwork & how it’s going to be used. We can provide a rough guide over the phone, but we generally require to see any artwork before providing solid information.

 

3. Send the artwork to us

This is the part where we can personally double-check the artwork against what you’ve told us and give you an OK or not. If your artwork cannot be used, we can provide you with information about how to correct it for printing, or you can entrust our graphics department with re-creating it for you for a cost-effective fee. If this is the case you will be informed in detail exactly what will be required to re-create it and how much you will be charged.

 

4. Double-check

Depending on your scenario, we will either send you back some shiny new completed artwork for you to check out and approve, or a mock-up of your artwork in the positioning you’ve requested. At this point you need to double-check you are totally happy with everything we’ve provided to you, as this is what will be getting printed. If you have any concerns or questions, don’t hesitate to contact the Pro Print Group person that you have been in contact with, they will be more than happy to answer any of your questions.
