Compatibility Issues:

Illustrator, Indesign and Quark 7 have artistic features such as Drop Shadows & Transparencies which can pose problems for our color management systems when PMS matches are called for. To reduce problems in your files please send us native, unflattened (.ai, .ind, .qxd) files so we can adjust any Pantone's necessary to acheive the closest color match possible.


Please contact your Sales Manager or Customer Service Representative if you have any questions or problems.
