Turning In Your Artwork


Emailing us your file:
During your order, you will email us your file with the order number as the subject. There will be an email link available to you that automatically implements your order number as the subject. Files are emailed to sales@idmprint.com.

File Types:
The files we accept are PDF, JPG, AI, flattened PSD, TIF, TIFF or EPS.

For printing residential and commercial plans we also accept PLN and PLT files.

If you are using Microsoft Office (Word, Publisher etc.) you can download this tool available from Microsoft to convert your file to a PDF.

We know that some of you will send us a Publisher file. There will be a $15 fee for us to convert it into a PDF for print. We will send you a proof before we print.

Fonts:
All files should be flattened, outlined or vectored to avoid font problems. If we have issues, a representative will contact you by email. Orders with font issues will not be produced or billed. You can also send us the fonts used in your file, but there will be a $15 charge and you will need to approve a digital proof before printing.

Resolution:
Be sure your file is at least 200 resolution (preferably 300 or higher). Web graphics (small graphics saved from the internet) are not meant for high quality printing.

Resizing:
Need us to resize your image or photograph? No problem.

If we see obvious problems, we will contact you before printing to ensure we print your order the way you want it. If we have to resize your file, there may be a $15 resizing fee.

Full Bleed:
If your print job requires full bleed, please make the artwork 1/8" larger than the paper size. This gives us a trim area. For instance, a file to be printed full bleed on a 8.5" X 11" sheet of paper should be 8.625" X 11.125".

Downloads
