Platform: We use MACINTOSH computers exclusively.
Media: We accept Macintosh-formatted floppy disks, Zip 100 disks, Zip 250 disks, Syquest 44MB, 88MB, 200MB cartridges, and CDs.
Programs: We use Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and QuarkXPress exclusively.
Fonts: We accept only Macintosh "Type 1" fonts. Remember to include both the "Suitcase" part and all related "Document" parts for every font used in your design! (If your art is created in Adobe Illustrator, please convert all fonts to OutlinesŠthen you will not need to include the fonts.)
Resolution: For digitally-printed banners, the resolution must be 80-100 pixels per inch WHEN ENLARGED TO FULL SIZE. Use Adobe Photoshop's "Image Size" to determine what the resolution will be when enlarged.
Applique Banners: We prefer artwork submitted in Adobe Illustrator for Macintosh, with all type converted to outlines. We can accept QuarkXPress designs, but any "placed" graphics must be in Illustrator, not Photoshop, and all fonts must be included.
Silkscreened Banners: We prefer artwork submitted in Adobe Illustrator for Macintosh, with all type converted to outlines. We can also accept large, high-resolution, black-and-white linotronic prints, from which to create silkscreens.
Digital Banners/Buttons: We can accept artwork submitted in Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop or QuarkXPress for Macintosh. (See notes above concerning Fonts and Resolution.)
