Tips for Using Images from your Scanner
Know the image size required for your layout before you scan. Guess larger if uncertain. If the photo is larger than the layout size, simply scan at 300dpi. If the photo is smaller than the layout size, adjust your scanner settings.
Adjust the scanner resolution setting
Adjust the scan percentage size


Here are just a few considerations when submitting your images or materials for Budget 4 color printing:

Q: Sometimes I get more than I ordered and sometimes I get less than I ordered. Why is that?

A: Because the printing press counts each sheet, but some end up being thrown away due to quality defects. In addition, if the job is folded or finished in some other way, there is waste in that process as well. Most printers usually run extras to make up for this waste factor, but sometime they have a higher waste factor than expected, and thus you may end up with less than you ordered. Sometimes they don't have as much waste as they expect, so you end up with more than you ordered. It is impossible to count the exact amount of waste, which is why the industry has the over/underrun standards.


Q: How do I know what resolution is for my digital camera?

A: Most of the newer digital cameras will let you know what the image resolution is. But there are still others that will only tell you what the pixel dimensions of your image. If you know what the pixel dimensions of your images are either from the camera itself or through the image editing software, you can do a little math to determine the resolution, and the size you need to print the image at for the clearest and sharpest printed image possible.


Q: How can I be sure I am getting the best quality possible
A: To make sure you get the best quality possible, simply write down the pixel dimensions of your image and if the image does not include text divide each number by 300. (Divide by 400 if the image does include text.) For example: An image without any text has a pixel dimension of 600 x 900 pixels. Once each dimension is divided by 300 the result is 2 x 3 inches. This means that you can use this image at 2 x 3 inches or smaller in your layout for quality printing results.



Make note of your printer's requirements when sending images. You may need to adjust your image, crop your image or customize your image in some cases before sending. Some commercial printing services for example, require images in .jpg format for example while others require images in certain sizes.

Ask your printer in San Francisco California if they customize images, or if you need to manipulate images on your own prior to submitting for print jobs. Many inexpensive software programs including Adobe Photoshop allow you to customize images rather easily.

Consider the word count for all brochures you are creating. Remember most times when working with brochures you will have to limit the word count to make sure there is enough space in your brochure to include everything you have to say. The same is often true when printing newsletters; most times whether creating a custom newsletter or using a template, you have to limit the word count.

Tip: Most printers have a set of "standard" inks that they order premixed to PMS standard colors. Using one of these standards can save the cost of the printer having to mix inks to a precise formula to achieve an exact specified PMS color.
