“Multi-color, camera-ready” artwork means separated compositions for each color, with center marks, all accurately sized. Halftone reproductions and screen tints are accomplished in coarse 60 – line screen. Line art is recommended for sharp reproductions. Artwork provided must be “to size” to eliminate added charges for reducing or enlarging. Where camera-ready art is not available, artwork will be provided upon receipt of your rough layout and will be billed on a time basis cost of $100 per hour.

Artwork that is properly prepared and ready to be photographed for plate making is camera ready. Traditional prepress consisted of boards or mats with all elements in place. Today, laser or inkjet printouts may serve as camera ready art.

Camera-ready artwork is a quality black and white piece of artwork that printers require to reproduce a custom trademark, design, or special type. This means that the art must be clean, sharp, and on quality glossy paper.

Camera-ready artwork is artwork which requires no additional touch-up. If more than one color, each color must be separated with registration marks. It can be submitted electronically or printed on an ad slick or premium paper. How sharp this artwork needs to be can vary by the method and type of material to be imprinted. Most imprinters prefer either exact size or 200% of size to be printed. Please contact us for more information. Back to Questions.
