• Illustrator (.ai): (Version CS2 or older) Please outline all fonts to avoid any missing fonts. Please provide the names of the fonts used if we will need to use them on other aspects of the job (i.e. for numbering, etc.). If we do not have the font(s) we will need you to send the font files.

Print/Image Area:

• All Machintosh programs and image files: Our standard configurations are based on an equally divided sheet of 8.5”x11” paper (recommended ticket sizes). Once you have decided on how many tickets per page and have your dimensions, you will need to subtract 0.17” from each side of the ticket to allow for our printer margins. This would be 0.34” subtracted from the length and again from the width. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call us 888.771.0809.
• Bleeds and non-standard sizes: We can setup files at any size and shape, and with or without a color bleed; however, this may affect the price. If you have some flexibility on the size of your final product, please call ahead for measurements so we can give you the best price possible. To design your own ticket with a full color bleed, the designer must take care to follow these instructions. The full color must extend beyond the trim size by .2” on all sides. The text and ticket information must be within the trim size by .2”.

Please send us a file with the stub line and number position to show placement and another file without the stub line and number for printing. Recommended file types are TIFF, JPEG, AI (Illustrator), or PSD (Photoshop) with a high resolution (300 dpi). You may also want to let us know what fonts you are using.

Normal processing time is 3 business days from the day you give your final approval to print. We send you back a snapshot of your ticket for your approval, just to be sure that nothing has shifted or changed in transmission. Shipping time is in addition to the 3 day processing time and varies based on the shipping method chosen. You can choose your shipping options from UPS Ground, 3rd day, 2nd day or Next Day Air.

If your order is cancelled after we send you a proof you will be billed a minimum of $50.00.
