Although Arc will accept .tif, .jpg, .eps, or .gif files, we do prefer that you create and send us a pdf file. A pdf, or portable document file, is the easiest and most accurate way to submit a file to any printer. It has become the new standard for major manufacturers of both toner-based output devices and imagesetters for dealing with customer-created files. PDF files....

• Can work seamlessly from Mac to PC or vice-versa because they are
  not platform dependent.

• Eliminate common errors (i.e. missing font and graphic issues) because everything becomes embedded.

When creating and then sending us your artwork, please be aware of the resolution of your items. If you create your job with low (72 dpi) resolution graphics, we will not be able to output a higher quality piece. If you start with crisp, high resolution items (200 dpi minimum) your finished project will reflect that quality. Be aware, even though the art looks good on your screen, this does not necessarily mean it will print well! Contact Arc with any questions about resolution or concerns about your project.
