• Images should be converted to the printer's ICC profile and high resolution, 300 dpi.
• Fonts used must be included.
• In the case of a bleeding ad, cut marks must be indicated. OPI links must not be used.
2. Text, font
• Use only Type 1, Open Type or Unicode postscript fonts. Other font types may not be used, including composite fonts.
• Avoid ligatures.
3. Colour space
• No colour spaces other than CMYK may be used in the advertisement.
• RGB, Pantone or ”spot colors” and similar must not be used.

4. Size
