Remember that “Clean” artwork means “production ready” artwork. We prefer vector-based graphics like .ai, .eps, or .cdr files with smooth edges and without too many control points.
If submitting raster images like .bmp or .jpg files, make sure the resolution is high enough for us to convert it to vector format easily.
This letter is just right! It’s a vector format image with the correct number of control points (dots on the letter).
This vector letter is workable, but the extra control points must be removed before it can move into production.
This raster image has a resolution that is high enough that we can easily convert it to a vector image.
This low-res image will take time to correct or rebuild, and may result in design fees.
In our graphics department, our team cleans the artwork making sure all curves are ready for manufacturing and the stroke widths are optimally set to give off the best lighting. After the artwork is cleaned up, our graphics team produces the drawings with the correct colors and accurate dimensions. The finished artwork is sent to you for approval. After the artwork is approved, the LED layout and, if necessary, the remote mounting patterns are created and the sign moves on to the routers.
As a reminder, here is our order procedure to ensure everything goes as smoothly and orderly as possible.
