Proofs of Ads for Color Guide:

All ad material should be accompanied by a certified SWOP proof for color and special ink matching. Advertisers who do not send SWOP proofs take responsibility for the final printed product. For black-and-white ads, a position proof of the ad is suitable. Despite all efforts to ensure quality, the magazine is still subject to occasional color variation that occurs within standard manufacturing tolerances.

You provide the information, we design the ad. Send us one product shot as a transparency, photo or digital file (digital pictures need to be 300 DPI and sized to 2 1/4 * 2 1/2 in.) and up to 75 words of ad copy. We produce your four-color ad to a finished size of 2 1/4 * 4 1/4 in. in our Product Spotlight section. Pre-designed ads are not accepted for this advertising venue.
Additional charges for ad production, color proofs or alteration services will be based upon current labor and material rates.
