For those using Acrobat 6.0 Professional or higher versions, default PDF/X - 1a settings will produce an acceptable PDF file. Other file formats can be accepted but may require additional time in pre-press and incur extra costs. PDF/X-3 files can contain profiles and are not acceptable for ad submission.

Proofs: For each COLOR AD, please provide a contract quality proof matching SWOP standards that has been approved by you, the advertiser. Digital proofing encompasses a wide variety of processes and products with varying characteristics and abilities. Although many of these products are acceptable for contract proofing it is best to use caution when using digital proofing. Adhering to industry SWOP standards for proofing quality control is the best practice. Check http://www.swop.org/certification/ for a list of certified systems.

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Space rates reflect an all inclusive charge. However, if the artwork submitted is non-conforming to our specifications, i.e. no proof or if the files require any kind of trouble-shooting, further charges will apply.

If you submit your ad via a designer/ad agency, please have them adhere to the specifications on the contract. Ads sent via email are NOT acceptable. If you do not supply a contract proof with your ad, one will be produced at your cost and you will waive the right to final approval of this proof.

Production charges will be incurred if alterations are necessary due to errors in ad size, type, color space, file format, or lack of a proper proof. Charges will be billed at an hourly rate.

Any changes made by the advertiser after the artwork has been submitted to SFFAS will be charged to the advertiser.

SFFAS has sole discretion as to placement of all ads in the catalogue. SFFAS/EHSS reserves the right to reject any artwork deemed unsuitable for publication.

SFFAS DESIGN SERVICES

Provide a professional quality, high resolution digital photo on CD-Rom or DVD. Include all copy for your ad in a Word file, all logos to be used in ad in high-quality digital format on the CD and provide a sketch of how you'd like the ad laid out. Your ad will be designed as close as possible to your instructions.

We will provide a digital proof in PDF format via e-mail; you will need to e-mail your approval of the ad.
