Business cards should ideally be designed in Adobe Illustrator and saved as a .EPS with ALL TEXT CONVERTED TO OUTLINES. We also will accept .JPG (MAX QUALITY), .TIF, or FLATTENED .PSD (source file). If sending an Illustrator EPS, please make sure that ALL TEXT is converted to OUTLINES. When sending artwork to us, please make sure that your files are named as follows:

COMPANYNAME-FRONT.eps
This file should be the side of the card that you want UV-coated.

COMPANYNAME-BACK.eps
This file should be the side that you want to be the BACK side.
All artwork should be submitted as
ONE image for the front and ONE image for the back.
NOTE: We do accept other file types, but your order may incur a file correction or design fee in order for us put your artwork into a format that our Press Department can use. If you have any questions concerning this, please email our Design Manager.
