Artwork Requirements

We would like that you send vector art via e-mail to
artwork@totallypromotion.com. Vector art is usually created in Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw as a vector based EPS, AI or PDF file format. If you do not have this type of format, please send the highest resolution file you have and we will convert it to the correct format. The ?Image Enhancement? process takes your raster image and converts it to vector. Most of the time this works great, however if your art file is too low resolution to convert, your artwork may need to be redrawn which may incur additional charges (depending on the complexity of the artwork). Converting or redrawing artwork may also add additional days to production. We can typeset text and create simple artwork for free.
