HUDSON VALLEY BILLBOARD FILE PREP:

To insure the highest quality, the following digital file guidelines are recommended for billboard production:

Adobe Photoshop:

360 dpi (min) CMYK Scale at 1 inch = 1 foot. US Web Coated (SWOP v2) color profile.

Adobe Illustrator:

CMYK, .ai, .eps, or high res .pdf, convert all type to outline, link or provide any support files.

Please scale at 1 inch = 1 foot. US Web Coated (SWOP v2) color profile.

EXAMPLE:
10'X20' Billboard-Set up canvas as 10"x20"/Resolution 360/Mode CMYK (This is your live size).

BLEED:

Our Standard Finishing is 6" bleed all around with 3" pockets, for example a 10'x20' is the live image area and with bleed and pocket the vinyl will finish out to 11'x21' finished size.

PMS COLORS:

The best way to ensure your colors match is to us the pms colors from a pms chart (pms is Pantone Matching System)

Do not send us files in RGB mode. Your project will be converted to CMYK and there will be a difference in color.
