Our Expert Design Staff has the capability to create professional artwork for your specific project. Art can be created from a rough sketch at $50.00 (V) per hour. A color art presentation can be e-mailed or sent for your approval.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR ARTWORK

Pinnacle Designs Art Department is Macintosh based and primarily uses the following Mac programs: Adobe Creative Suite which includes Illustrator 11 and Photoshop 8.

"Vector graphics" in Illustrator is preferred for receiving art so that we are able to manipulate art lines, color, delete areas etc. without losing the quality of the graphic. Unless it is for our PHOTO-POINTE process, any art file sent in Photoshop will have to be redrawn at $50.00 (V) per hour. All files sent must be saved in EPS format!

HAND COLOR FILLED PROCESS
Black & white art submitted must be 400 - 500% of actual emblem size. Black lines should represent the raised metal partitions. White areas designate where recessed metal or where color is to be placed. All color filled areas should be enclosed completely by black lines. All faxed artwork will have to be redrawn and incur art charges.

FONTS
All fonts (type within the art) must be either ?outlined? or the entire font must be sent in a Font Suitcase.

SCREEN PRINTED PROCESS
Colored artwork with labeled PMS colors must be submitted in EPS format. Our design staff will create the color separations necessary.

PHOTO - POINTE PROCESS
All photo process images should be saved in Photoshop as an EPS (Encapsulated Postscript) file. Standard size of files should be 3.5" X 3.5" and the DPI should be at least 150 but no higher than 300. Please submit photo process artwork with a 1/8" bleed around all edges if possible. Photo process art sent over the internet should be kept under 1MB. We prefer that art be sent on disk if the file size is over 1MB.

SUBMITTING ART
Artwork is preferred on a CD but can also be emailed to your Pinnacle Designs Custom Project Specialist, for forwarding to the Pinnacle Designs Art Department. Emailed art files, if larger than 1MB, should either be zipped or stuffed.
