What we need when you send us an ad:
Most advertising materials arrive at Flowers& as digital files. We operate in an all Macintosh environment and prefer that your files are readable by a Mac. We can, in special cases, accept PC files, but please check with us first. Also, please send a color proof or other hardcopy preview. Without a color proof (matchprint), we are unable to control the color quality of the printed ad.
In general, we are able to give you the best service when your ad arrives as a PDF (CMYK and with fonts embedded).
- Image files: Please send only hi-res images (at least 300 dpi), in EPS or TIFF format. The color mode should be CMYK rather than RGB.
- Layout files: We prefer that you submit your ad as a TIFF image or PDF file. This reduces errors caused by fonts. We will, however, accept Quark Xpress or Illustrator files. If creating a PDF file, please be sure to embed all fonts and images. If using Quark, please be sure to include all fonts and images. If using Illustrator, please convert all fonts to outlines.
- Compressed files: Please use Stuffit Deluxe for compressing files to send via email. Please be sure to make the file “self-extracting.”
- Production charges may apply if changes to your ad are requested or required. For example, a $25 charge applies to any four-color change from previously supplied materials.
For general information about advertising in Flowers& or to reserve space, call 800.421.4921. For information about advertising materials and deadlines, call Elinor Cohen at 800.321.2665.
