Graphic Services

TO HELP US PRODUCE YOUR PERFECT PRODUCT, PLEASE REFER TO THE GUIDELINES OUTLINED BELOW.

FILES: Ensure that all files are properly named and updated in all layouts and file names have the correct file extension name (i.e.: .eps / .tif / .ai / ...etc.).

BLEEDS/TILING: Bleed, crop or registration marks are not required. Penguin Exhibits will tile and trim to color.

PROOFS: Provide Penguin Exhibits with an accurate fully updated jpeg., pdf, or hard copy proof for each layout. Electronic proofs of your files are available at $25 per file and print proofs are available at $35 per file.

FILE ADJUSTMENTS: An hourly rate will be charged to adjust colour, artwork, fonts, client changes, etc.

COLOUR: When possible supply PANTONE (PMS) numbers or a printed sample. NOTE: Penguin Exhibits will do their best to match colours but due to varying printing methods, SOME COLOURS ARE NOT OBTAINABLE. If a colour match is critical, an hourly rate will be applied while achieving that colour(s).

LOGOS: Supply all logos and illustrated graphics as VECTOR format whenever possible.

FONTS: Include all fonts used in your layout, or convert them to outlines when possible.

PHOTOSHOP: All files should be final size at minimum 75ppi (Pixels Per Inch) resolution. Supplying layered files will enable us to adjust your files if necessary.

INDESIGN: Submit all INDD’s in CMYK mode, with any placed or imported colour scans in CMYK at 75ppi @ full size. Convert fonts within placed Illustrator files to outline. Output file should be packaged properly and contain all linked artwork and fonts, including those fonts in any AI files that have not been outlined.

ILLUSTRATOR: Link files as opposed to embedding them. Convert text/strokes to outlines, save in .ai format.

TEMPLATES: Templates of our standard portable display series, can be supplied on request.

Penguin Exhibits can also help you with the design and creation of your exhibits. Supply us with digital files, photographs, logos and text. Give us your concept, and let us get creative.
