Real photographs
from "Print-Ready" files: |
-
We print real Fuji photographic paper, not
toner copies
or inked lithographs.
Toner copies, printed on plain paper, feel cheap.
Lithographs, printed on presses, have dots in the image.
Neither has the high-quality feel of real photographs.
-
Best results
come from professionally prepared digital files.
We'll work what miracles we can from the other stuff!

FILE GUIDELINES:
If you're a professional graphic artist, here are your
guidelines. Please feel free to call for additional information anytime.
If you're an amateur, we welcome you but please do your homework and get
knowledgeable guidance before submitting files. File fixes can be time
consuming and costly.
-
Print-Ready means your file is ready to print, "as is".
-
Scan pictures, logos and artwork at 300 dpi AT FINAL IMAGE SIZE. Lower
resolution scans don't work as well.
-
Proportion
pictures and layouts for your chosen print size (5x7 or 8x10). Don't
forget to include borders.
-
Avoid thin rule lines near print edges. Automated print trimming varies by plus
or minus 1/32" and thin lines near the edge can appear uneven.
-
Flatten Photoshop layers and channels.
-
Convert color to Grayscale for Black & White prints.
-
When using Quark for page layout, make sure to include all font
files.
-
Save picture files in sRGB, Adobe1998 RGB, ColorMatch
RGB, or CMYK(SWOP2)
color space.
-
Save files at 300 dpi at final print size. Resolutions as
low as 100 dpi are okay but higher resolutions work better.
-
TIFF
format files are best. Compressed files, like JPEG, should be saved at the highest
quality settings.
