FILE TRANSFER





Preparing files


For fine art printing files should be defined in RGB. Our preferred color space is

eciRGB_v2_ICCv4

(download at: www.eci.org). 300 dpi at 1:1 print size is ideal for highest quality. TIF, PSD, PSB, PDF, or JPG formats can be used, although saving a flattened TIF is recommended.
