Print Ad Specs
 Each ad should be submitted at least two weeks before print date
Ads should be at least 300 dpi (images from the internet are not print ready). Ad formats Illustrator, Quark Express, In Design, Photoshop and PDF. If submitted in Illustrator format, please create outlines on all text and if in Photoshop, flatten file.
Full page add: add an extra ½” outside of trim for bleed, if ad bleeds.
The ad copy (text, pictures, logo, etc…) should be at least ¼ inch inside the trim size

This ensures that when the magazines are cut, none of the text is cut off, and there is no white space
