PrideGuide

Make sure to email justin@vapride.org AFTER buying your "tickets" with business name, web address, advertisement and ticket number (for matching) to be included in the PrideGuide.  Size Information  All ads have a .125" bleed

ALL ABOVE INFORMATION MUST BE RECEIVED BY SEPTEMBER 3RD 2010 TO BE INCLUDED.  NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED IF DEADLINE IS NOT MEET.


Acceptable File Formats :o)

1. PDFs — Create the PDF document at the exact size of the desired ad (include bleed if your ad is a bleed). All graphics images or pictures used in the PDF must be 300 dpi at the exact size that they will appear. Color mode: CMYK
2. JPEG or TIFF files — only acceptable at the exact size of the ad at 300 dpi. TIFF files must have no layers. Save JPEG files as high quality - and NOT optimized for web. Color mode: CMYK.
3. EPS file — an Encapsulated Postscript File (.eps) encapsulates all the images you used in your ad, so that you don’t have to send them along separately. BUT an .eps file does NOT include your fonts when you save it. You must either RASTERIZE, or CREATE OUTLINES of the fonts used in your .eps file. Since EPS files can be heavy file sizes, we can accept them on CD, FTP download, or email.

Unacceptable File Formats >:^(

1. All GIFs and PNG files. Anything pulled from the internet has the chance of being unusable.
2. Some JPEGs. Photos downloaded off of the web (unless from a stock photo site or other high resolution online photo resource) will NOT reproduce in print. Using any image you pulled from the homepage of a website will make your ad pixelated.
3. RGB is the wrong color mode, switch to CMYK.
4. Native collected ad layouts, images, and fonts for Quark, Photoshop, Indesign or Illustrator are usable, but they are not preferred.
5. Office programs such as MS Word or MS Powerpoint, and similar programs are not acceptable.
