Special Ink
Special inks are available per color by selecting from the PANTONE ® Color Formula Guide. Requesting an exact match from a color swatch or sample will require an additional color match charge.
Thermography
No additional charge for folders printed in thermography. Tri-fold folders, file jackets, vertical pocket folders, and multimedia holders cannot be printed in thermography. Thermography printing is only available on products and paper stocks indicated by the thermography icon. Large imprint areas are not recommended. Thermography cannot be in register with other processes.
Creating Your Files
Create one item sized correctly per document. Placed graphics and text should be sized at 100 %.
Fonts
Using your illustration program, convert all text“ to curves” or“ create outlines” in your files. Never use the stylization palette to bold, italicize, add drop shadow to or put outline on your fonts. If you are using fonts not owned by Navitor, outlines must be created in an illustration program before submitting your artwork.
Margin Requirements
For spot color printing using one or more spot colors, artwork must have the position noted in the special instructions, or a sample must be attached. Four color process printing should have at least ⅛ "(. 125 ") margins.
Bleed Requirements
⅛ "(. 125 ") should be allowed on all sides. Make sure the text still maintains the required margin even when graphics bleed.
Presentation Folders
Color Requirements
Navitor now has a new " Accurate Color " System. You can now send your files colored using the intended PANTONE ® PMS color instead of having to color it using CMYK colors. Every effort will be made to print your intended color within acceptable standards.
Spot Color Printing
Submit black and white bitmap mode images at 600 dpi and grayscale mode images at 600 dpi for standard spot printing.
Four Color Process Printing
• Every element of the file must be colored with process CMYK colors( no RGB, indexed color, etc.).
• PANTONE ® PMS spot colors and process colors are produced using different methods. Therefore, colors produced in four color process will differ from PANTONE ® spot colors, sometimes significantly. Refer to a Solid to Process Color Imaging Guide for color conversions.
Printing Black vs. Black for Four Color Orders
Use printing black( C-80 %, M-80 %, Y-80 %, K-95 %) instead of 100 % black when in registration with other colors, in areas with heavy ink coverage, and for bold type or lines( 2.5 points or thicker). Use 100 % black in all other instances. If the CMYK mixes used in your file do not match the Multicolor numbers chosen, we will use the file as is and print as a“ CMYK Scan” with no guarantees.
Swatch Library
Our Swatch Library can be installed on equipment that is running any Adobe product. This will give you access to all of our Colors and their mix settings to ensure that we print exactly what you create. The instruction file will walk you through the process of setting up the file. The library and instructions for installation can be found under“ Help and Resources” on our website.
