Resolution Rule of Thumb:
Graphics with largest dimension under 50" should use 150 DPI for raster art. If your graphic exceeds 50", you may reduce resolution to 100 DPI to conserve size. Exceeding 200 DPI slows down the RIP and does not add quality.
|
|
| |
Compress files with a ZIP or StuffIt utility. Do not compress TIFFs with LZW.
|
|
| |
Remember that increasing the scale of an image by interpolation can result in a severly degraded image. Attempting to use web-ready graphics at exhibit display sizes is likely to yield unsatisfactory results.
|
|
| |
Bleed:
If longest dimension is under 50", provide 0.25" bleed all around. If longest dimension is over 50", provide 0.50" bleed all around.
|
|
| |
If preparing art for multi-panel murals, DO NOT attempt to divide the panels into separate files. Prepare a single file for the entire image area with one bleed-around only.
|
|
| |
Build all files to exact proportion. You may send a file at double resolution and half-scale if your layout software does not accomodate display dimensions.
|
|
| |
Vector gradients can cause banding, sometimes severe.
|
|
| |
Send files in CMYK format .

Large mural art tip:
We have had very good experiences with final Photoshop art saved as a flat JPEG at a #9 quality and 150DPI. This assumes that the original art was of high quality but it yields a very good file at a much reduced file size. Please confirm your image quality before sending any file in this format.

Software programs that we support:
Adobe Photoshop (Version 6 and earlier)
Adobe Illustrator (Version 10.0 and earlier)

|

Please flatten Photoshop files and outline all fonts in Illustrator.
