• We prefer FTP. Please call or email David Miller for login information.
• Compress all files, linked graphics and fonts into one archive. This requires Stuffit (Macintosh) or WinZip (or one of its variants on Windows).
• Do not make the archive self-extracting.
• Name the archive with your company name and a date. Do not use spaces in the name.
• You will then use a ftp client like Fetch or CuteFTP to upload your files. Enter the login or user ID and password combination you were given in the connection window like the one below (Please follow the instructions for your particular FTP utility)
  
  
• E-mail info@grafikart.com or phone (805) 968-3575 to alert us you've uploaded the file. Please give us the name of the file. If you've included multiple files to be concatenated into one document, we must have a file list detailing the order in which to join the files.

• Email your file to us at: info@grafikart.com.
• Our email size limit is 5 MB per message. Please do not send multiple messages with large attachments; use our FTP site.
• Please follow the same naming and compression techniques detailed above in the FTP section.
• Alert a Client rep that you've sent a file by calling (805) 968-3575.

 
Adobe® PDF™
We can accept these for printing either to our color printer or to our black & white digital copier/printers. They can be a great solution for printing, allowing you to preflight your PostScript and save space when transferring the file electronically. You must, however, use the Acrobat Distiller program to render the PDF, not the PDFWriter that comes with many applications.

Furthermore, you must set Distiller's preferences correctly; the default settings will render a poor-quality print. Follow this link to find out how to set up Distiller correctly. More in-depth information on creating high-resolution PDFs, published by Adobe, can be found here.
