Ways of submitting information for multi-colour printing 

Electronic

CDs are ideal carriers for submitting layouts both concerning compatibility and resolving discussions.

Requirements to layouts

The layout shall be made using Windows or Apple Macintosch in Adobe Illustrator software. Accepting layouts in Corel Draw is limited (they should be specially approved).

All colours used in the layout should be specified in CMYK colour system (Process Separation option ON). Additional colours should be specified as Spot-colours (Spot Color ON) and only in case of printing with more than 4 standard inks.

We do not recommend using lines less than 0.25 pt (0.1 mm) wide.

Attention to overlap value for objects. It is recommended to assign Overprint attribute for small objects with black filling or outline (first of all this refers to text).

Customer should attach to the layout all fonts to be used. We recommend not to use system fonts. In order to avoid incompatibility convert fonts to “curves”. 

Requirements for vector images
