Format Requirements:

The guide is laid out in QuarkXpress on a Mac platform. We prefer to receive your ad as a pdf file, but if you are using a Mac you can send rip-ready files in InDesign, QuarkXpress, Photoshop, or Illustrator. Remember to include all linked files and fonts, and a hardcopy proof.

If you are using any platform other than Mac, pdf files are the only way to minimize problems.

Pdf files must be prepared by:
1. First printing to a postscript file
2. Then distilling the postcript file using Distiller that comes with Adobe Acrobat version.Don't enable any color management while doing this.
