8 THE SHEPHERD • APRIL 2023 • SAINT SPYRIDON GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH OF SAN DIEGO Saint Spyridon Greek Orthodox Church of San Diego • 3655 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA 92103 • 619.297.4165 BROCHURE AD SPECIFICATIONS: To accommodate the many different software programs and OS platforms, we have established a PDF workflow for receiving finished artwork for printed advertisements. PDF is a ubiquitous file format developed by Adobe Systems Inc, standing for “Portable Document Format.” A properly created PDF file preserves the original look of the document, no matter what type of computer or software was used to create it. Fonts, photos and graphic images appear exactly as they do in the original document. Our established advertising rates require digital PDF ad submission, which enable us to produce a quality product for our advertisers and meet the standards of quality printing. There are a number of ways to create a PDF file, but not all are suitable for high quality printing. Some are only suitable for internet use, while others are intended for printing a copy to a desktop printer. A PDF file that has been created properly for a printing press contains embedded fonts, high resolution images and vector graphics. One to produce your PDF is by using Adobe Acrobat with the “press quality” settings. PDF files created online or by Microsoft products do not always comply with commercial printing standards and may be rejected. Please submit your print ad in a vector-based, CMYK PDF with all fonts included, at 100% size (no scaling). If raster images are included in the PDF, please make sure that they are 300PPI or larger at actual size. Rasterized black text should be 600PPI or higher. Full page ads (including the opportunity ticket ad) must include 1/8” bleed all around. Ads smaller than full page should not include any bleed. See available sizes on reverse side of this sheet. If you can only provide loose materials (hand-written content, typed text, photos to be scanned, business cards, etc), our creative director can create an ad for you according to your specifications and suggestions for a $100 fee. You may also hire any other designer of your choice. Please note that, as with any other printed material, printed business cards or printed ads are not acceptable as ready-to-print artwork and must be professionally rebuilt for a fee. However, submitting a business card digitally produced layout as a properly exported vector PDF (not a photo or scan) is acceptable and will not be assessed an additional fee. WEBSITE AD SPECIFICATIONS: • PIXEL SIZE: Please call or email for details • COLOR SPACE: RGB or Indexed Color. No CMYK allowed. • FILE FORMAT: JPEG, GIF, PNG, Animated GIF.

If you don’t know what these specifications mean, or if you don’t have the software tools to meet them, please consult a professional designer or have our designer build the ad for you. $100 fee will apply.
