Please convert your CS le to a Press Quality PDF and upload the PDF to our free website: www.pbniads.com. Dot Gain Our dot gain is approx. 30% normal for offset web presses. That means a 50% dot (in midtone area) on screen will grow to 80% on newsprint. Dot compensation is not linear, therefore gain is less in the highlight and shadow regions. PBNI prints at 100 lines per inch Graphics Settings for text and graphics scanned, created or altered in Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. Scan images at 200 dpi, 100-line. CMYK color only. No RGB or LAB colors. No LZW compression. No DCS entries. No separate layers. All layers attened. No transparencies. No extra channels. No Photoshop created PDF les with layers. No PICT or GIF les. No low-res JPEG les. Photoshop and Illustrator EPS les preferred. No elements outside im age area. Convert type to paths, if font is not provided. Color Use CMYK only No Pantone, Spot or RGB. Note: We recommend you work in CMYK mode or convert colors to CMYK before submitting your ad. PBNI will convert any non-cmyk colors received and is not responsible for color variations that can occur during the conversion process. Avoid using 100% color in large areas, such as a background. The end result may look muddy/oversaturated, and may cause rub-off and bleed-through on facing/backing pages. Type Rules Screens For clarity and readability 10 pt. or larger type is recommended in newsprint advertising design. Small type and thin rules should be 1-Color only (Black, Cyan or Magenta only). Minimum reverse type size: 10 point. (avoid serif type) Minimum process color reverse type size: 12 point or greater (avoid serif type). Use 1-Color Black only. Do not use 4-Color, Registration Black for type, rules, backgrounds or any other element in your ad. Screens no less than 15%. Screens no greater than 70% behind solid type of the same color. The Palm Beach Post is SNAP Certi ed.
