Preparing Your Business Cards Files
You can send us final files using the following specifications or for design fee, let us create production artwork from your design concept, logos and photos.
Preparing your Files: Files must be supplied at 100% of the size shown in the technical specifications. Images should be set at 300 DPI. Files should be supplied in EPS or TIFF format with images converted to CMYK. Files sent in any other format will incur additional charges for conversion.
Proofing: These files are sent directly to production and are NOT proofed by Alta Graphics. The purchaser of the graphics is responsible for proofing all design files with their respective graphic designer prior to submitting them.
Using our File Creation Service: Let us turn your design concept into a professional design! You need to supply us with all logos, images and text together with a rough layout. If you do not know what you want or require several design proposals, your needs are beyond the scope of this service. Contact customer service with any questions.

"We needed a “Unique” look and are very happy to have found Alta Graphics in showing us how to achieve it. They explained the alternatives and helped us to navigate the confusing world of producing a custom high end business card."
