Acceptable Media: PaperCity accepts CD and DVD only. Film is NOT accepted. File Types Supported: We accept Native Quark XPress, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop files as well as CT, TIFF, EPS and PDFx1a files. PaperCity only accepts Native files for the Macintosh platform. Any files prepared on the Windows platform must have all fonts converted to outlines. (Note to Quark users: XPress does not support this option.) PDFs created in graphic applications are not press-ready PDFs. Transparency settings and overprint can sometimes be an issue. Most of these issues occur during plating. To avoid these potential problems, it is important to provide a contract proof with any PDF. Problems will be evident on the proof. Required Proof: In order to maintain the most accurate color reproduction in our publication, we prefer a calibrated, GATF/SWOP-approved proof with color bars and marks. These proofs include: Matchprint (digital or analog), Creo Proof, Polaroid Proof, Kodak Approval. For more information about GATF/SWOP standards, go to: www.swop.org/ Due to the nature of the printing process and paper stock that PaperCity incorporates, color may vary somewhat from preferred proofs. Unacceptable proofs include but are not limited to: HP 5000, Epson5000/9000/10000, Inkjet and Color Laser Copier. These devices do not meet GATF/SWOP standards. PaperCity will discard artwork after one year of run month. Artwork will be withheld until account is current. Please supply a SWOP-certified proof.We cannot guarantee SWOP standard color matching with a non-contract grade proof. If a proof is not supplied, we cannot assume liability for omissions, misprints or font defaults. If you have any questions, please call us for specifications prior to submitting your file .
