Artwork File Considerations
- Resolution: The higher the resolution of your bitmap, the
better the end result. 300 dpi bitmaps at 200% of the final output size are
preferable.
- Vector vs. Bitmap: Vector based artwork is resolution
independent and can be scaled to any size without loss of detail. Bitmaps
are comprised of pixels that enlarge when the image is enlarged. The larger
a bitmap gets, the more the pixels will be visible.
- Gradients: Be aware of gradients. Gradients can not be
reproduced on any laser engraved product. Limited gradients can be printed
subject to art approval. Full color and gradient imprinting is available on
all vinyl or domed imprinted products.
- Black and White vs. Color: Black and white line art or
separated color art is required. Multi-color bitmaps are not acceptable as
they cannot be traced into the separated colors. Multi-color bitmaps are
acceptable if the colors do not overlap.
