- No, computer monitors display images in RGB, meaning that the colors are made from a combination of Red, Green, and Blue plus brightness (light and dark) and projected on your monitor. Print media is mostly composed up of CMYK values, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. Therefore, your monitor will not give you a very accurate representation of what the print output will be. Color for print is produced by reflective color, meaning the color is produced by the light hitting and reflecting that color back. DO NOT rely on your computer monitor to match printed output. Since a monitor and print are very different, it is always wise to proof your project before a run, to assure color issues are taken care of before the job is completed.
- Large differences in printer and monitor calibration also make it very difficult to accurately match color from a monitor to print.
If your print job is color sensitive, request a proof first!
- We suggest submitting .pdf files with outlined fonts. Add your crop marks and then flatten your file before submitting your order.
- You can also send native file formats: .ai, .indd, .psd, .qxd, .eps
- There are other options to send files but it may result in lower quality: .jpg, .jpeg, .tiff, & Microsoft Office files.
- Save the .pdf as a Acrobat 4.0 (.pdf 1.3) compatible file.

- Yes, but we must make a .pdf and have you approve the file.
- Beware of color shift. Colors tend to look more purple when printing from Microsoft products.
- We prefer if you send us .pdf files.
- We print in CMYK. Set up every job in CMYK color mode. If you work in RGB, convert your file to CMYK before print, or you may experience a large color shift. Monitor display will not accurately predict how a printed CMYK document will look.
