print ad file requirements

[Note: Every publication is different, and each one may have its own special requirements not outlined here. Check the publication’s media kit or contact the Traffic Coordinator if you have questions.]

A printed proof should accompany all submitted artwork.

Do NOT include printer's marks (crop marks, registration marks, etc) in the file submission. If you are concerned that we will not know where your ad should be cropped, include crop marks on the printed proof and we will ensure that your ad is placed properly.

Do NOT include a bleed with fractional ads unless specified.

Please supply only a print-ready PDF file. We cannot accept any native application file formats (no Word, InDesign, Publisher, etc) or any other file format. PDF must be a hi-res, print-ready file. All raster images should be 300 dpi. All fonts must be embedded. For more information, see our recommended PDF settings.

Color: Please refer to your Media Kit or ask your Traffic Coordinator for specific requirements for color setup.

The publisher will not be held responsible for color running incorrectly if a digital color proof is not submitted by the advertiser. A digital color proof (Matchprint or Iris) should be submitted at 100% ad size. Laser or inkjet proofs are acceptable for content only, but cannot be used to guarantee color.

Upload your ad file here.

(You may also upload to our FTP at ftp://network:*submit*@ftp.networkmediapartners.com, or submit a CD. Submitted media will not be returned unless requested.)

Send hard copy proof (and disk, if submitting by CD) to your Traffic Coordinator at:
