We will typeset up to five lines of lettering of ad copy using our standard typefaces at no charge. If you have more than five lines of text we recommend you have your ad copy typeset by a professional graphic designer or typesetter. We prefer true eps, vector, adobe illustrator up to 10.0 files, or correctly formatted PDF file for artwork. Each product has a limited imprint area, we cannot imprint typestyle less than 7 point lettering or typeface.

7. Our preference for electronic artwork is one of the vector formats as shown above. If you do not have one of those vector formats, send us a high resolution (300 dpi or better) jpeg, bmp or tif image. We have software available to convert most high resolution image to a vectorized format. Low resolution images (72 dpi to 200 dpi) do not convert well. Some fine lines and small details may disappear in the conversion of a digital image.

9. If you do not have an electronic format, we can typeset the ad copy for you. We have many typestyles available. See our typestyle here. We have the ability to scan black and white artwork sent by mail or fax. We prefer your artwork three times larger than the actual imprint size to get the best scanning results. When sending artwork through the U.S. Mail, do not fold, staple or tape through the artwork. Send artwork flat between two sheets of cardboard to ensure it remains flat.
Once your email artwork is received at Creative Services of New England, we will open your emailed image and compare it to your faxed image. we'll size the artwork according to the product specifications, print a high resolution image and transmit a paper proof to you via fax.
