* JPEG – a minimum of 300dpi, which must be saved as a high quality image

* We ask that all artwork is provided with bleed and crop marks added:

* If your artwork includes an image & background colour that ‘bleeds’ (runs off the edge of the page) please extend the image or background to 3mm outside the page area, this is to ensure that when trimmed the edge has a ‘clean’ finish

* Please add ‘Crop Marks’ to indicate where a page will be cut (or trimmed) after printing.
