Activities Magazine Artwork Guidelines
Ads
When creating artwork for ads, please use appropriate software programs.
Adobe InDesign or Illustrator, & QuarkXpress. These programs should be
used to CREATE the ad but please don't send us these files. Export your file
to a PDF file optimized for Press Quality.
Some tips for great looking ads:
- All ads should be made to size. If your ad is 4.25" x
1.625" then that should be the size of your document. - Do not outline fonts. This is an archaic step in the graphics
workflow. It is not relevant anymore. PDF files take care of any font problems. - Photoshop is for PHOTOS! If at all possible do not use
Photoshop to create artwork for print. If this is the only program you have,
at least save the file as a Photoshop PDF. Please do not send PSD, TIFF,
JPG, PNG – and raster/pixel based file formats. - Do not use Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, or Publisher. These
programs are designed to be used at home on your printer. They are not geared
for professional publishing. There may be an additional charge for converting
these types of files.
Art and Photography
Any images sent to us should be at least 266 dpi. and cropped to the appropriate
size. For example, an image for our cover would be 10.5" x 10.5" at
266 dpi. This file would be approx, 23 MB in size.
