For best results, your artwork will need to be recreated, using your content and high resolution images.  View our artwork specifications.

A jpeg file is most likely a low resolution proof and not suitable for printing. However, if you've approved the artwork and paid the designer for the service, they should provide you with a press-quality file ready for printing. Similiarly, artwork prepared for your website is not suitable for printing unless your web designer can provide your logo and other design elements as a high resolution image or scaleable vector file. If this is not possible, we can certainly recreate the same "look" so that your print material complements your website.

That's a "No" for two reasons. Firstly, images on websites are a very low resolution, suitable for viewing on screen only. Images used in commercial printing need to be a high resolution of 300dpi at the final size. Secondly, copying images from websites, and other printed material, raises copyright infringement issues.

In most cases, the best conditions for taking photos is outdoors on an overcast, but bright, day. The cloud cover acts as a light diffuser, minimising harsh shadows as seen on photos taken in bright sunlight. Aim to "fill the frame" with your subject, however be careful not to cut off any important details, and leave a little extra space around the edge so we have enough image to "work with". Put your camera quality setting on "high" or "best", and have fun! Email the images to us, just as they are when you download them from the camera, without cropping or altering them in any way.

We recommend iStockphoto for your image requirements. The images are royalty-free so you only pay a nominal fee to download the file. If sourcing an image for your print job, please ask us for advice on which size file to buy, so that it contains enough data to retain press-quality resolution at the final size.
