“Graphic Guidelines” and technical specifications for vinyl records

We have graphic art templates available for download at http://www.recordpressing.com and click on the template link

Please follow the following file format and arrangement specs for the best service. Incomplete or illegible art files will result in production delays, and possibly poor presentation of final product. We require that all graphic arts are to be received in a RECORDPRESSING.COM template.

File formats It is necessary for all files received by RECORDPRESSING.COM to be presented in a high quality file format such as EPS, and TIFF formats. GIF or JPEGS are NOT ACCEPTAPLE. Due to this specification, it is necessary for all files delivered to RECORDPRESSING.COM to be art files saved as a Adobe Illustrator 7.0 (or earlier) file, with all text converted to outlines, and all images embedded. This will ensure that your artwork will be uploaded in its complete state for prepress/print production.

All files should be submitted on a CD-R or Zip Disk or sent to us via our FTP Site (please contact us for more information).

Colors All used colors should be in the model CMYK or direct (spot) colors must correspond to the Pantone scale. The model RGB must not be used in document preparation in any case! All direct (spot) colors must correspond to the Pantone scale, and be specified within the template. Files that include mixed colors (e.g. "new color") that are defined as direct and originating from the RGB model or named differently than in the Pantone scale will be rejected. Please note that due to differences in label and jacket paper stock, matching label colors to jacket colors is difficult and we strongly suggest using direct (spot) colors to accomplish this.
