How to send artwork on disk or e-mail
For Badges, Nameplates, Signs and T-shirts.
-
Ryder Engraving is set up in Window XP
-
CorelDraw X3
& Corel Photopaint
Microsoft Word and PDF files (windows format)
Save or export your logo files in any of the following formats:
- Raster images: jpeg (jpg), tiff (tif),
bitmap (bmp) & png at a Minimum of 300 DPI or more
to size (600 dpi preferred)
- Vector images: svg, cdr, plt, IL (windows
version)
Postscript: eps, ps, pdf or prn (embed your fonts or send fonts or change fonts to
curves or lines)
 Bitmap
images: The 300 dpi logo
(dots
per inch)
at 100% to size or larger
(600 dpi preferred). Higher the dpi
will produce a sharper, cleaner image. If you are not sure how to check your dpi... try
printing your logo on your laser printer. If it dosn't have nice clean look, the dpi is too
low and you need to have your art person or supplier make a new file.
Before sending images or
logos that you down loaded off of the internet, see below.
Logos off the internet:
Do not send images or
logos that you got off of the internet, in most cases the image are
only 72 dpi. A computer monitor only needs 72 dpi to produce a good looking
image. A laser printer needs at a minimum of 300 dpi to size to print a good clean image. The better the camera ready art the
better your badge will look. Do not take a 72 dpi image and convert it to
300 dpi, the image will still only be 72 dpi. An additional charge may be
incurred if your logo requires a lot of time to clean up, or if the colors
need to be separated for screen printing.
- MAC users
Please convert to Windows format and send in Tif, jpg, pdf, eps, ps, or prn.
-
- Naming your file:
- Please use your company, university, or
organization name for your file.
- Ryder gets hundreds of logos per week... please do not
name your file "logo".
You can see where I would have a problem knowing whose logo file belongs to whom.
Also please make sure no two logos has the same name, what happens the 2nd logo
being save to the hard drive will save over the first logo. Example of file name (businessname.jpg) if
you have more than one file with the
same name put a number 2 on next file (businessname2.jpg) for the second logo.
Damage or poor quality image of your
logo... need Clean Printers Ready Art of
your logo.
Does your logo look like a old copy of a copy, of a copy, of a cartoon joke
that's been passed around the office? Do you need good clean camera ready
art of your logo? Send us any printed sample of your logo and for a small
fee, Ryder Engraving will re-create your logo back to its original camera
ready quality. A camera ready stat or a file will be sent to you for your
future needs. We keep all logos that we received on file for future use.
- The average cost
to recreate your logo is usually only $25 due to the complexity
of the logo.
