CTP preparation

To ensure the accuracy of the data releases, we want to use this opportunity to raise few rules for creating PDF files and how to send them:

• All images must be 300 dpi in resolution, in CMYK without ICC profile.
• It is recommended to create a PDF from Post Script (PS).
• Each side must be centered and bleed at least 3 mm on all four sides.
• The texts that are in black should be in one color (100% K); black color has to be "overprint".
• It would be helpful if the PDF was made one at a time (not more pages in a PDF), because with all other options when sending corrections there are problems with the removal of the old page.

Basic parameters

Format: PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4.0)
Color: CMYK (except for the use of spot colors in separate channels)
Profile: no ICC profiles
Resolution: 300 dpi minimum
Bleed: 3 mm on all sides
