Artwork for Door Hangers
|
If you have artwork you would like us to use to print door hangers, please read the information below. Setting up your artworkYour artwork should be sized at size you need your item to be, with the resolution being 200-300 dpi (300 dpi will give better results). IMPORTANT: Keep text, photos, and graphics at least 1/4" inch from the edge of your artwork. Otherwise your text, photos or graphics could end up being too close to the edge of your cards. And don't put information in the upper 2-1/2" of your door hangers, as that are will be cut to accommodate the door hanger hole. File formats we can work withWe can work with artwork saved in any of the following file formats: .ai (Adobe Illustrator) *.psd (PhotoShop) .eps .tiff .jpg .bmp * We prefer working with files that have been saved in Adobe Illustrator format (.ai). If you will be sending an Adobe Illustrator file (.ai) - please save it as version CS 6 (or lower) and convert all fonts to paths / outlines It's not the best program for designing artwork, but we may be able to extract graphic images from Microsoft Word files that have been saved as a .doc Sorry, but we are unable to work with PowerPoint or Publisher files. If you have PowerPoint or Publisher files, please save them as a .tiff or .jpg. Download Door Hanger Templates |

Sending clip art, logos, photos or finished artwork
If you have a logo, a photo, or any type of clip art you would like us to use, please send it as a high-resolution .jpg or .psd file, preferably at 200-300 dpi. (300 dpi yields better results).
Potential Problems with Fonts
When we receive artwork that was created with a font we don't have, problems can arise.
If we don't have the EXACT font that was used (there are many variations of common fonts and there's a good chance those variations will not work), we won't be able to print your design and have it look the way you intended.
However, there are ways around this problem.
If your artwork is created in CorelDraw or Adoble Illustrator, please convert the fonts to what are known as paths / outlines before sending your file. (To convert to paths / outlines simply select all the type in the design and choose the "convert to paths / outlines" option under the type menu).
Another way to avoid font problems is to send your artwork in any of the following file formats (.psd, .jpg, .bmp, or .tif). If you use any of these file formats, we won't have a problem with the fonts.
If you are going to create and send a relatively simple design, it probably would be easier to have our graphics department create the artwork for you. And since basic design and set-up is included in the price, it would probably be easier for you, too.
Digital Printing and Color Matching
The items we produce will be printed on a high-quality Konica Minolta digital color laser printer.
Because we print digitally, we are unable to offer exact Pantone color matching. If you need any item we produce to be color matched, please let us know when placing your order.
If you need clip-art for your door hangers, but don't have what you need
If you want to include a graphic image (often referred to as clip art) in your design, but don't have what you need, we have a possible solution.
You can go to freepik.com and look through their vast collection of online clip art. We have a subscription to their service and we can use the clip art found on their site to help create your design.
To facilitate your search, simply enter a word or short phrase that describes what you are looking for in their search window. After viewing the results, if you find a piece of clip art you'd like us to use, click on the item and copy the link to that piece of clip art. There should be a seven digit number at the end of the link, Write that item number down and let us know what it is. We then will be able to find it and use it to create your design.
