| Platform: |
Macintosh |
| Disk Formats: |
DVD, CD’s, Jaz, Floppy |

Build in Quark Xpress or Adobe InDesign 2 with all elements
imported at 100% Adobe Illustrator 8
(version 9 or 10-must call prior to submitting), Macromedia
Freehand 8, 9, 10 |
| Document Size: |
Screen Printing: Build file 1/4 size at 300 PPI or full
size at 150 PPI. D-MAX: 280% except on solid black
background – please use 40% yellow, 60% cyan, 60% magenta,
with 100% black GCR:
Coyle requires all subject matter be reproduced with Dominant
Black where applicable. Digital: (High Resolution)
Build file 1/4 size, 300PPI, D-MAX 280% |
| Bleed: |
Build files with additional bleed on all 4 sides of files that
trim to color bleed. 1/8” is OK for both Screen &
Digital products. Include crop marks with labels for Margin
Borders, Bleed Borders, Trim and intended
View area when displayed. (Cloning is available if necessary
at an additional charge.) |
| Support Graphics: |
All support files must be created at 100% of import size. Most
graphics are built using Illustrator or
Freehand. Attributes for individual files set at min 800ppi
output resolution. Photoshop bitmap graphics
built at min 600ppi. |
| Scans: |
Minimum resolution 150 to 300 PPI @ 100% of import size TIFF
format is preferred. Include ALL linked
scans/files. Scans must be saved in CMYK format. (RGB format
can cause unwanted results when
converted to CMYK). Avoid embedding scans into Illustrator &
Freehand documents. Jobs containing
embedded EPS files may require extra RIP time and therefore,
additional costs. |
| Scitex: |
Projects created with files from the Scitex environment may
not be usable and will definitely require
extra work, added time and expense for the project. |
| Color: |
Screen Printing: D-MAX approx. 260-280% (solid black
areas require undercolor: 60%Cyan, 60%
Magenta, 40% Yellow). Apply GCR dominant black to neutral gray

Apply GCR to files with color critical areas of neutral gray
and silver tones. |
| Fonts: |
Supply all post script printer and screen fonts or true type
fonts. |
| Proofs: |
Proofing with files built to the specifications above will
provide the best results on press.
Screen Printing: contract/analog proof must accompany furnished
disk (except when Coyle handles
color. An OK-signed laser for layout & content must accompany
all files on disk.) Accepted proofs
include: Imation Matchprint, Fuji Colorart, Dupont Waterproof,
Kodak Approval and *Agfa Pressmatch.
(*Not preferred) Supply color proofs on appropriate substrate
best matching your selected print stock.
Proofs made on yellow stock tend to change overall color and
may make obtaining approved color
impossible on press. (Not accepted as contract proofs include:
Inkjet, Dye-Sublimation or Color Lasers).
Digital Printing: Coyle provides one calibrated digital proof
for color approval. Any additional color proofs
and changes are billable. An ok-signed proof or laser for layout
& content must accompany disk. |
