Your
Scanned Images:
For
optimal resolution and results, please use the following guidelines:
Images should be scanned at a minimum resolution of 100 dpi, at full size.
Please call for resolution requirements if you are scanning for very large
printing. Scan images in RGB mode. Save images as PhotoShop, EPS, or TIFF.
High-resolution drum scanning is available at extra cost. If you are
providing art for scanning, transparencies achieve best results, however,
reflective art is also acceptable. Printed material is not recommended.

About
Color Matching:
Our
digital printers are calibrated to support the Pantone Matching
System. It is not recommended to match screen colors to printed
colors unless your monitor is properly calibrated. It is necessary
to provide us with a color proof in order to ensure color
accuracy. Color laser or Postscript "ripped" color
proofs are acceptable.
