Advertiser Information:
 
Please submit the original photo(s) with your ad text, layout concept (not required) and payment via US Postal Service. Please understand this is to achieve the best possible printed quality for your advertising dollar.

Digital image submission information:

Email your Hi Res photo file in full color (RGB) at 300 dpi scanned at the size you wish for the image to appear (general rule is 5" x 7" or larger) to Mary at whippetwatch@yahoo.com.

We pride ourselves on customer satisfaction, and a part of that comes in the form of good communication on our part with all advertisers. One of the steps we take to insure you will be pleased is to email low resolution (PDF or JPG) proof. We feel this is just one of those extra steps needed to insure a happy customer and good customer/service provider relations. All advertisers purchasing 1/2 page or larger receive one complimentary copy of that issue.

Pre-designed ad specifications:

The file size needs to be 8 1/2 x 11 with 1/4 bleed all around (on all four sides), finished trim size will be 8 x 10.5.

Photoshop files:
please set the file to actual print size, TIF or EPS file format preferred, 300 dpi, CMYK color (not RGB) for color ads or grayscale for black and white ads (highlights should have a 3% dot shadows should have a 97% dot and set mid tones a bit light as the printing process does cause the images to come out a bit darker), and flatten the complete image before sending it in so there are no font issues.

Illustrator or Freehand files:
set the file to the full with bleeds size, save as a EPS file, select all type prior to sending image, convert all text to paths/outlines, resave file (incase there is an error that you need to correct later) as a 2nd file name for submission. All images that are used in the file need to have the above Photoshop file specifications.

QuarkXPress (MAC ONLY) files:
submit all fonts (printer AND screen) with completed ad layout via CD (emailed quark files not accepted due to the size and all required files that must accompany it), all images must accompany the file (see Photoshop requirements for all images), file size as previously stated. Be sure to not use the "bold, italic, etc" styles on the measurements palette as these are for screen representation only and will not print.

PDF files:
must be set as press files, all fonts and images embedded, 300 dpi on all images and no compression.

Front/Back cover details:
only call name goes on the front or back covers, there is a half page inside for the story section which needs to be set up at a trim size of 8 x 4.75, (the 8 wide is the actual TRIM/finished size so the text should be set in at least 1/4" from the sides or it could well be trimmed off), if you have a screened background please add the bleed for that.

Anything printed (laser or inkjet) will only be used as a guide for layout/design! No Word, Powerpoint, InDesign files accepted.
