You can save time on your project by preparing your artwork for us. When we receive your project, we check your designs and some changes may be necessary to get the best results. Here are some tips for preparing your artwork correctly.

➊ Use Daystar templates. DOWNLOAD HERE
By using Daystar templates, you can be sure your files are the right format and resolution. Files provided in our templates require the least amount of time to prepare, which means you get your proofs faster. You can download the right template for your project here.

➋ Give us the right format for your files.
We prefer Photoshop files (.psd) in layers. We also accept Tiff, PDF, EPS, JPG. If you are using Quark, please provide us with an EPS or PDF. All files must be at least 300 DPI.

➌ Provide "Bleed" on your artwork.
Bleed is the area around artwork that gets cut off. It makes sure you don't end up with a white line around your artwork. Bleed should ideally extend 1/8 of an inch all the way around your artwork. Our templates allow for 1/4 inch of bleed.

➍ Respond quickly to your proofs.
After we have prepped your files, you'll receive a proof by email. We need your approval to proceed. If you don't receive your proofs, or think they may be late, email or call us.

We're always here to help. So if you have questions, just ask. We respond quickly to phone calls and emails.
