File Formats for Submission
The magazine layout is created in Adobe InDesign using a Macintosh OSX operating system. All ads must be digitally supplied in the following compatible formats:

• Adobe Photoshop CMYK TIFF (preferred method). 100% print size @ 300dpi
• Adobe Acrobat PDF X1A Press Standard preferred
• Special Note: All ads will be rasterized before placement. Please design accordingly. Avoiding small type on rich black is recommended.

We request a color proof of the final ad, as well as all linked or embedded files and fonts used in the ad. All images must be in CMYK format, and set up for 150-line screen. Ads that are improperly formatted or not submitted per exact specifications will be subject to the hourly rate ($60) for revisions.
