Graphic Files
We welcome originals in PDF or major layout formats including InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Publisher, Word and others. PDFs are preferred for compactness and WYSIWYG. If sending native files, please ZIP or Stuff the file, fonts & art to reduce size when emailing. Call if you need help.
Address Files
A good practice is to send only the info needed for your mailing. Smaller files are easier to email. Excel (.xls), tab delimited (.txt) or comma separated (.csv) files are best for email size. Fixed length formats and data base files from dBase, Access, FoxPro, etc. may be too big for emailing. Call or email us, we'll help you send the right info in the best format - no charge!
Starting a Data Base
If you are starting a data base for your organization, we recommend Excel or a similar spreadsheet. The columns in spreadsheets help organize data. Set up columns of similar data: first, last, company, address, city, st, zip. Word processing programs are a bad choice for lists because it is hard to organize data and easy to scramble data by accident.
