What are the artwork requirements?

We accept a variety of different formats. We use Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop CS3 to prepare artwork for gobo production.

• Vector artwork should be saved as an Adobe Illustrator compatible file, ideally as an eps file. This is our ideal format and is perfect for logos and text.
• Bitmapped artwork should be saved as an Adobe Photoshop compatible file. You can send jpeg’s, but the resolution and compression of the file may reduce the image quality. If this is the case we will redraw or ask you to supply a higher resolution file.
• To achieve the best possible projection we ask that your artwork be saved at minimum resolution of 600dpi with an image size of at least 127 x 127mm.
• If you need to reduce the file size of your artwork please use a file compression utility instead of a graphic compression i.e. highly compressed jpeg files.
• Files less than 5MB can be emailed to gobo@projectedimage.com
• Files between 5-10MB can be emailed to projectedimage@googlemail.com
• Files in excess of 10MB will have to be uploaded to order custom designs or posted on CD to: Projected Image UK Ltd, Unit 17 Hoults Estate, Walker Road, Newcastle upon Tyne NE6 2HL.
• We also accept hard copies of artwork but please note additional redraw charges may be incurred with complex and low quality artwork.
• Hard copies can be faxed to +44 (0) 191 265 9832 or posted to the above address.
