Artwork Requirements for Custom Product Production

Vector artwork files are used to print our custom products. Using vector artwork ensures your image will print clearly, not pixelated. Vector artwork, created in Illustrator, is comprised of outlines, not pixels. All fonts used within the vector file must be converted to outlines to avoid font substitution if we don’t have the font on our computers. You can always send us your font files, and we can convert your fonts to outlines.


File Formats We Accept for Custom Products

Our graphic designers can work with any type of file or sample (jpg, tif, png, gif, doc, docx, pdf, ai, eps, tif, psd, ppt or printout of your artwork) to create a vector file for your custom product. If you provide a photo of your artwork, a resolution of 300 dpi or higher will give you the best results.


Custom Artwork Charge

If we create a vector file of your artwork, there are two types of fees. The standard fee will be a one-time $40 artwork creation charge. If the project is more in depth and complicated, there may be additional artwork charges. If you have questions about which fee will be applied, we would be happy to answer this for you. Once we have created your vector artwork, we will give you the vector file so you can use it on all of your marketing materials to create consistent branding for your institution or business. As an added bonus, we will retain your vector artwork on file to make it easy for you to place future custom product orders with Carrot-Top Industries.
