Vector Files:

- Vector files are not resolution dependent unless they contain embedded images.

Quality:

- The highest quality images are always produced from the best original art that you can provide. Jayhawk Signs can perform image retouching, but we always ask for the best original artwork to start with.

Pantone Color Chart:

- We can only print digital "4-Color Process" (CMYK). Unfortunately, we CAN NOT print solid PMS colors. We can, however, match most PMS colors using CMYK. Some PMS colors cannot be matched exactly using CMYK. You may request a one square foot proof of your print for $30.00 to ensure color matching.

- To ensure accurate color matching, we recommend that all of our wholesalers purchase a Pantone "Solid to Process" color chart. Jayhawk Signs WILL NOT GURANTEE any colors unless a $30.00 proof is purchased on the specific material that the customer needs because each material will produce a different shade of color. For example glossy vinyl will produce one shade of red and a matte vinyl will produce another shade of red. These colors will be similar but not the same. Jayhawk Signs will guarantee color if the customer is using the Pantone "Solid to Process" color chart.
