Creating PDF Files

When you provide a PDF file, you must adhere to the following criteria:
• Create PDFs using the PRESS option on your Distiller.
• PDF files must display the same dimension as the ad; if you have a full-page ad with a bleed,
the PDF size should be 11.25 inches height x 8.75 inches width. (Live area is 10.75”H x 8.25”W)
• All colors must be CMYK. Convert all RGB, LAB, PMS and Pantone colors and objects into
CMYK before making the PDF.
• All fonts must be embedded. Make sure to select this option in your PDF setup before mak-
ing the PDF.
• All images must be hi-resolution (300 dpi) using CMYK process color.
• ANY PDFs NOT MEETING THESE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE REJECTED!
NOTE: PDF is a multi-purpose format. PDF files can be created as low resolution for the Web and as hi-reso-
lution for print output. It is VERY IMPORTANT to note low resolution PDF files cannot be used for print output.
PDF files created for Web & PDF files with low resolution images will not be accepted.
