Solutions for Creative Minds

At S2 Imaging we want to make sure all aspects of your project go smoothly. In order for your project to start out properly we need to have your artwork prepared using the following guidelines. These guidelines are provided for your convenience. Art work not meeting our guidelines is subject to additional file charges.    If you have any questions please call us at 1-888-650-4286

Note: If you are sending files with a Mac, you will need to use Fetch. You will also need to turn off your external firewall

If you use a CD of Floppy Disk or other type of removable media we will need the following:

1) If you job is color critical, a hardcopy of your  artwork in color is preferred.

2) Filename/directory structure or location of your artwork files on the supplied media

3) PMS color match info if necessary

How artwork on disk should be setup if supplying an EPS File:

1) All files should be included in one folder with relevant font and reference image files included

2) When saving your EPS, be sure and convert all fonts to outlines

3) If your content includes image files they should be supplied in their native version (i.e.. Tiff, Jpg, PSD, etc.) at a resolution of 300 DPI)

How to layout your artwork:

1) We recommend when creating large mural pieces to create one complete file 1/2 scale of the finished size. Example: Finished size: 96" wide x 86" high set document size at 48" wide x 43" high (1/2 scale)

2) If you are using Photoshop for file prep, again set document size at 1/2 scale with a document resolution of 175 dpi, if you want to work at 1/4 scale setup your document at 300 dpi. (Or up to 135 megs)

3) If your artwork includes both vector and raster based content, remember to setup all raster based images at 300 dpi within the finished artwork. (this applies when creating an EPS file Illustrator or Photoshop)

4) All artwork should be created and saved in a CMYK environment.

5) Please do not use any type of compression software on image files. (i.e. - lzw TIFF compression)

6) Please be aware, overlay complex clipping path can cause issues with our RIP software.

7) Please always provide enough bleed while setting up your file with respects to our layout templates for each different type of display hardware. If you are not sure how to proceed, please call your account Rep. for clarification.
