Digital File Requirements

Digital File Requirements

• Pages should be created as a single unit within the document file and set up at the exact trim size (8" x 10 3/4").
• Spread ads should be set up as two facing pages.
• Bleeds must be extended at least 1/8" beyond the trim area.
• All live matter should be kept at least 3/8" inside the final trim.
• Press ready PDFs are preferred. Please contact the art director for other acceptable digital file formats. Please note that transparencies should be discarded prior to creating PDFs, as they can produce unreliable results (particularly when originating in Adobe InDesign). If transparencies are being used, please contact the art director.
• Match print recommended.
• All ad materials destroyed after 12 months.
