PREPARING YOUR FILES FOR PRINTING So, you have received a final approval on your design project Then comes the phone call. The printer doesn't have the fonts, the files don't work, the paper you ordered isn't made anymore and you forgot to add bleeds in your files, and when your head is reeling, they tell you they can't possibly make your deadline. It happens a lot more than you think. But, by following a few guidelines and understanding what actually happens to your file once it leaves your hands, a lot of problems can be avoided. |
