Print-Ready Guidelines

Create one item sized correctly per document. (Placed graphics and text should be sized at 100%.)

Fonts: Using your illustration program, convert all text "to curves" or "create outlines" in your files. Never use the stylization palette to bold, italicize, add drop shadow to or put outline on your fonts. If you are using fonts not owned by Navitor®, outlines must be created in an illustration program before submitting your artwork.

Margin Requirements

Spot Color printing:

1. Business cards must be sent 1-up with at least a margin.
2. Envelopes must allow from the top and side.
3. Letterhead must have at least at the top and along all sides and bottom.
4. Presentation folders must have the position noted in the special instructions or a sample must be attached.

Full Color and folders printing:

1. Business cards should have at least margins.
2. Postcards need at least margins.
3. Sales sheets, flyers and brochures require at least margin for the text or other image that doesn't bleed on all sides. If a bleed is wanted, the text still needs to be away from the edge.
4. All folders require at least a .25" bleed from the top and right sides.

Bleed Requirements:

1. Should be allowed on each applicable side. Please make sure the text still maintains the required margin even when graphics bleed.
2. Bleeds are not available on full color raised letterhead and envelopes without a quote.
3. Bleeds are not available on square-cut labels or static cling labels. When supplying artwork with a border, please indicate if the border should print in from the edge of the label or if it should bleed. All artwork with a bleed must include a extension to avoid additional charges.
