The following guide will help you create files suitable for output at Prime West.

Image Area 11 ½ inches wide by 9 inches tall (horizontal/landscape format).
Design can have full bleed, but to insure all text is clearly visible, allow ¼ inch margin on top and sides and ½ inch margin on bottom. * See Ad Layout diagram
Design and Images Resolution Supply all files in RGB (or CMYK), image resolution 300 dpi. Files taken directly off the internet (which have a resolution of 72 dpi) cannot be used due to the low quality of print reproduction.
Design Installed ads are mounted under plexiglass in a wood frame. These are mini-billboard ads and should be designed accordingly – clean, eye-catching design with a minimum amount of text. Use larger font size for text you want to emphasize.
Font Please include all font files used OR convert text to paths (outlines) and save a copy.
Client-supplied materials will be returned if requested.
