Submitting Your Art
Choose one of the two methods below. Compressing your files can often lessen upload times and is highly recommend if you need to include fonts or external linked files. If you need to upload revised artwork or files that are larger than 250MB, please give us a call at (877) 246-3132. Please note that we only retain your original files for 30 days, so if you think you'll need them again, be sure to keep a copy for yourself. We now require you to login to upload files via the website, so you'll need to quickly create an account if you don't already have one.
