Swissco Consulting

SWISSCO

doesn't require you to upload files and move them around on the screen. We want you to spend your time finding just the right product for your needs. We'll handle the artwork for you - just send us the files by email or a hard copy by mail. Our team will catch unforeseen problems, make recommendations, and review your artwork and lay it out for you.

What if I want a specific color match imprinted?

Many of our decoration methods allow for the opportunity to closely match the imprint color to a specific requirement. Customers who require specific color matching should provide us with "PMS" color numbers where applicable. PMS stands for Pantone Matching System®. Be aware that all monitors are different and the color you see on the screen will surely be different when viewed in person. If your logo is to be embroidered, we will select a thread which most closely matches your PMS color and you will have the opportunity to see this choice when you approve your "sew-out."

What graphic file type should I send you?

Acceptable Files in either Mac or PC Formats Art files can be created in Adobe Illustrator CS, Macromedia Freehand 9.0, or earlier versions of these programs. Files from other programs may be acceptable if they can be saved as an EPS. All files must be saved as EPS and all text converted to outline. EPS format files provide superior reproduction quality allowing /images to be resized with no loss of sharpness or detail.

Artwork with Text

We recommend that all text be converted to outlines when possible. If not, all fonts, font suitcases, printer fonts and screen fonts must be included with your art.

Single Color Artwork

We prefer Adobe Illustrator files, however we can use .jpg or .tiff files if their resolution is 600 dpi (dots per inch) or higher at the size of the imprint area. The logo should be in black on a white background. Web images are 72 dpi and are not acceptable. If your item is to be embroidered, we can use a web graphic.

Multiple Color Artwork

Send only original, native vector, EPS files. We cannot accept art files from the following Mac or PC platforms: BMP, Photoshop EPS, JPG, GIF, PICT, or TIFF. Do not attempt to save these files in an acceptable format. We cannot guarantee files sent from PC platforms (BMP, DOC, GIF, PICT, PPT) or any other than our preferred file formats or acceptable software will be usable. PC files such as DOC, EXE, PCX, PPT, P65, or XLS are not acceptable. These file formats are generally low resolution - only suitable for viewing on-screen - not for printing and cannot be appropriately modified. If your item is to be embroidered we can use a low quality graphic.
