Vector Line Art is preferred in .EPS, .AI or .PDF formats (type must be converted to outlines to avoid font substitutions). High Resolution Raster Art is also accepted in layered .PSD, .TIF or .JPG formats (at least 300 dpi, true to size). We currently use Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw, and Adobe Photoshop. All text should be converted to outlines to avoid font substitutions. *If art of these types are not available, Versa Prints can redraw as needed at an additional cost. Additional time may apply.

Applications Accepted:

  • ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR – our preferred file format. Create outlines for fonts. Save as .EPS

  • COREL DRAW – Convert text to paths. Save as .AI file.

  • ADOBE PHOTOSHOP – Should be used only for photographic images, not great for type or logos.

  • Placing a scanned image (or an image created in another program) into an Illustrator file does not make the file a vector image.

  • POWERPOINT

  • WORD or any word processing program.
