Artwork Guidelines

Vector files are the preferred format for logos, text, icons, and illustrations because they can be resized without losing quality, resulting in crisp, sharp print. Vector artwork is required for some products, such as Poly Tape.

If you wish to create artwork that includes non-photographic content (such as graphics, logos, or text), we recommend providing it as vector-based artwork whenever possible. This helps ensure that printed lines and images are crisp and clear.

Acceptable types of vector files for print include:

• Vector .AI (Adobe Illustrator files)
• Vector .PDF files
• Vector .EPS files
• Vector .SVG files (while these are not ideal for print, they can be used sometimes)

Some file formats, such as AI, EPS, and PDF, may contain both vector or raster artwork depending on how they're created.
