Ad Creation

Format: PDF files must be saved as a PDF/X-1a standard file. All artwork must be flattened before saving. Publication will not accept a file created in any other application.

Size: Document should be set to trim dimensions unless bleed is required (on full and double page ads). Please submit double page spreads as two single-page ads

Safety: Type or images not intended to bleed must be kept 3/8” from page trim.

Colour: CMYK mode only. Please convert all colour modes (including RBG) to CMYK.

Fonts: All fonts must be embedded in the file. Knockout type smaller than 10 points cannot be guaranteed perfect registration and is therefore not recommended.

Supplied materials that do not meet the required size and mechanical specification and necessitate modifications by Poise Publications will be subject to additional production charges. Deadline extensions for artwork will be considered if requested within one week of stated rate card deadline. If an extension is not requested and authorized, a $50.00 per-page late fee will be incurred on any materials received after the stated deadline.

The publication is not responsible for colour or content of files that do not conform to our specifications or if material is received after closing date.
