Door Hanger File Preparation
Before you upload your file, please be sure your files are saved as a high-resolution PDF file, which means it should be exported using the OPTIMIZED FOR PRESS from Adobe Acrobat® or use PDFX1A settings. If your artist has used transparency layers, you can overcome some problems by converting all elements to CMYK and removing all RGB and Spot Color elements and information from your file and then flattening all transparency layers. These preflights are availabe through Acrobat Professtional®. Be sure to give your file a final look before uploading. Once they file is uploaded, they are quickly processed.
Door Hangers are to be supplied to size plus + 1/8" bleeds, which adds 1/4" to the height and 1/4" to the width. Which means, 4 1/4" x 11" hangers require a page size of 4.5" x 11.25" and the 3" x 8" hangers will end up being 3.25" x 8.25"- the 1/8" [0.25"] bleed will be trimmed off after printing. PDF files are to be submitted as one, multi-page PDF file, where page one is always the front side and page 2 is always the back side. If you are unsure of any of these settings, contact our customer support department at [email protected]. Templates can be found on our template page.
SPECIAL NOTE: ALL PAGES ARE PRINTED HEAD-TO-HEAD BASED ON THE ORIENTATION OF YOUR PDF FILE - NOT THE IMAGE. IF YOU WISH TO HAVE IT PRINTED HEAD-TO-FOOT YOU MUST ROTATE THE PAGE IN THE PDF FILE. PLEASE DO NOT SEND IN READER'S SPREAD, MULTIPLE PAGES UP OR OVERSIZED PASTEBOARDS AS THEY WILL NOT BE PROCESSED.
