Premier Label appreciates the opportunity to work with you. We maintain a well equipped design and prepress department. We have all the hardware and the latest software to make sure your job begins correctly. If you do not have access to digital files, you can call or send us the artwork you have. If the art is in a usable form, we will proceed with the job. Depending on the quality of the supplied art, this may result in additional prepress cost.

To ensure the integrity of your files, please read the following information carefully and feel free to call us with any questions or concerns.

MAC and PC Users:


The preferred file format is Adobe Illustrator. We do however also accept vector PDF, Freehand, InDesign, Photoshop, and Quark Xpress

If using CorelDraw, please convert the text and save in an Adobe Illustrator format (.ai).

Always include a color or black and white proof so we have a visual reference to match with your file.

When incorporating placed graphics and photographs, EPS, TIFF, JPEG files, etc, in your layout, please include them with the files to be sent. Artwork should be easy to manipulate and created in layers. Minimum resolution is 300 dpi. 1200 dpi for bitmap. All original images should be sent with files.
