Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long does it take to transfer my digital files over the internet?
A: Transfer speed is determined by several factors: internet connection speeds, file size, and even time of day (on some networks). If you have a fast connection and have compressed your files, it should take a few minutes. If, on the other hand, you have a slow internet connection, a large uncompressed file, or a flaky ISP, please consider mailing us a CD or thumbdrive overnight.
Q: Should I compress my digital files prior to uploading them? Why? How?
A: Yes. Please see our File Compression instructions. Whenever you send files over the internet, they can become damaged as your data bounces around the globe. To protect your files from data corruption, you should compress them using StuffIt (Mac) or WinZip (PC).
Q: How can I upload more than one file?
A: Only a single file can be selected at one time, but you can upload as many files as you need to individually. We recommend placing all of your files (front and back layouts, support files, etc.) into one folder, compressing that folder, and uploading that compressed file.
Q: I will be uploading my mailing list. Are there any format specifications I should follow?
A: Please follow our mailing lists format specifications.
Q: Do you accept CDs, or thumbdrives in the mail?
A: We accept CDs, thumbdrives, digital camera media and loose digital photos to be placed into a layout.
Q: What file types do you accept and would you prefer to receive?
