Definition of Traditional Camera-Ready Artwork - Artwork printed on paper that is clean, crisp, black and white, and production ready, with no touch-up or changes  required. Multi-color imprints require color-separated artwork with registration marks. When using screens, please supply a separate solid overlay (not screened) and specify the percentage of the color to be used. The factory reserves the right to determine what is and is not camera ready.


What is Not Camera-Ready Artwork - Unfortunately, we cannot  consider photocopies, business cards, faxes, letterhead or other imprinted  products to be camera-ready artwork. We can quote most jobs by using such artwork, but not for production art. Our factories art departments can work from  these items to create your finished artwork at an hourly cost. Minor changes will be made at no charge.

Definition of Digital Artwork - Artwork which is provided on  compatible disk, ready for output with no changes required. Artwork which is  provided by electronic means but which does not meet these requirements will require additional work and artwork charges.

Acceptable File Formats - Adobe Photoshop, CorelDraw! (IBM  version 9 or earlier), Adobe Illustrator (IBM version 8 or earlier), JPEG, or TIFF.

Requirements for sending disks/art - Accepted disk formats include: 3 1/2" floppy disks (IBM or Macintosh), 100 megabyte ZIP disks (IBM or  Macintosh), CDR or CDRW (IBM or Macintosh), and E-mail.

Font Requirement - All artwork, whether sent on disk or by E-mail, must include  all fonts used. It is very important that we receive all fonts used in the creation of your artwork to insure proper translation, as fonts may change during the transmission and translation process.

File Requirement - All artwork exchanged electronically or on disk requires the  file itself, all placed artwork, and all fonts used in the creation of the file. If you are sending a compressed file, please make sure it is a self-expanding file or that it is compressed using WinZip or PKZip. Include a paper copy of your artwork with the disk(s). If sending your artwork by E-mail, please fax a copy to us, understanding that no job can be processed until camera-ready  artwork is received. Always keep a copy of your original artwork file(s). DO NOT  send your only copy.

Color Requirements for Screen Printing - All Artwork Specifications must be built using Pantone (PMS) colors (not process builds or  RGB), ready for spot color separation.

Compatibility - We are integrated with most programs for  both Macintosh and IBM platforms, however, the bulk of your artwork would be  preferred in an IBM format.

Artwork by E-mail - If sending files via E-mail, attach your  artwork file and all fonts used to create that artwork. If possible, please keep  file sizes under 3-megabytes total for all attached files. Once again, if  submitting your artwork via e-mail, it is best if you can fax us a copy of your finished art, as well as the fonts used, to confirm that what we have received  is truly what you would like to have printed. We will be happy to supply you  with a FREE proof before beginning your order.

We Understand ! - We know that the process of preparing and sending your  artwork can be a complicated and sometimes frustrating experience. This  information has been provided for those who may have the experience and desire to send their own art, but your Geiger sales representative will be happy to personally walk you through all the steps necessary. Our job is to make your job as simple as possible. Should you have any questions, or require assistance, please contact us at:
