How to Send Files for Commercial Printing
The only way to send your file to the News & Record for a commercial print job is to send it electronically. There are several advantages to sending files electronically. The customer is able to spend more time creating the file, and we are able to process it much faster, reducing production time. Also, electronic files reproduce better as they go from the customer's computer to our computer to output off of our platesetter.
To send your file electronically, save and send the file in PDF format (Portable Document File). These files are created in any conventional software such as Quark, Freehand, Illustrator or Pagemaker and then compressed into Adobe Acrobat format. This system of sending files is fast, no matter what program was used to create the file. Adobe Acrobat files will work with all computers, whether they be Macs or PCs.
If you
have questions about sending your file electronically, please call Rex
Riley at 336 (373-7166) or email him at rriley@news-record.com.
