Print ready
- Adobe Illustrator – convert text to outlines, expand any strokes and save at life-size. Save as an Ai file, EPS file or high-quality print-ready PDFs.
- Photoshop – Minimum 72 dpi at life size Tiff or PDF file.
- JPEG – we can work out a price from a JPEG file but we will need to know if it is the highest resolution copy you have. Sometimes if you have a large jpg and you only need a small print we can use a jpg as the print file but we have very little control over the color.
Not suitable to print directly from
but ok for sending in your concept or something for us to recreate from. A reproduction fee is likely to be charged.
- Word: Please avoid if you can sending us something designed on Word as if we don’t have the same fonts on our system they will be substituted and you will receive a totally different looking boat name.
If Word is your only option then please let us know which font is used.
Unsuitable Files
Files that are smaller than the size you want them printed at. Especially if the image is a photo or complex illustration/painting. Blown up images will likely end up looking blurry and/or pixelated.
We will be able to trace cartoon-style images and simple illustrations. A reproduction fee will be charged.
