See details below for how to work with big print
Files supplied for printing must meet our print requirements below. Any files that are not Big Print print-ready will need to be re-supplied or adjusted by Big Print. This work is chargeable. Minimum charge of (£50).
Colour mode:
All files must be supplied in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black). Files supplied in RGB will be converted to CMYK and colours can change. Colours set as Pantone colours may also be subject to changes. Colour proofs and test prints can be supplied at an extra charge.
Resolution (dpi):
All files must be supplied with a resolution of 300dpi (dots per inch).
Bleed:
All files must be supplied with a 3mm bleed. Please ensure that IN ADDITION to the 3mm bleed, all text or important images are a further 3mm within the crop area (i.e. 6mm from document edge).
File formats:
Artwork must be supplied in one of the following file formats: PDF Flattened PSD (Photoshop), Illustrator EPS (with text converted to outlines), InDesign, AI (Illustrator 8), TIFF, or JPEG
We do not accept Pagemaker, Freehand CorelDraw or Publisher files. All of these programs will allow you to export an EPS and we recommend you do so, testing to ensure it rasterises in Photoshop or similarly perfectly.
