Using the latest in technology, Debco has the latest software versions of Adobe Illustrator (.ai). For all other software, please send files as an encapsulated postscript (.eps) file. Such files are generally acceptable, as long as the file has been exported as an .eps file and not merely renamed as such.

Vector based artwork is required for all Screenprinting methods (with all fonts converted to outlines) and high resolution artwork is required for all 4 Colour Process Printing methods (Computer Generated) (at a minimum of 300 dots per inch at 100% size).

Please supply multicolour files as PMS SPOT colour separations and indicate exact PMS colour numbers. 4 Colour Process files requiring separation are not considered camera ready, and cannot be used for Screenprinting methods.

File Management Requirements
Adobe Illustrator : Files should be saved as Illustrator EPS files and in the native Illustrator 11.0 or earlier format.
In cases in which two different colours are touching (close registration) a 0.5 to 1.0 point trap must exist between the two colours. You must convert all fonts to outlines (lines and curves). For all other software, please send files as an encapsulated postscript (.eps) file. Such files are generally acceptable, as long as the file has been exported as an .eps file and not merely renamed as such.
