Artwork: There is a 20% dot gain on press (images become more saturated), therefore large areas of black are problematic, so design the artwork accordingly. Artwork files should arrive as uncompressed press-ready Adobe PDF files. If this is not possible, contact the OAH Advertising Manager to discuss alternatives. Art may be sent by email attachment to <advertise at oah dot org> if the file does not exceed 10MB. If over, mail artwork on a CD-ROM to the address below or upon request a Web address can be created for uploading the file.
Image resolution: No less than 300 dpi
Color: Artwork files and linked images must be black-and-white/gray-scale. "Rich black" (a build of CMYK inks) cannot be used.
