Here are some key points to consider:

Here’s a comprehensive overview of the technical specifications you’ll need to consider for your print advertisement for the Timeless Boardwalk. I recommend that you use a program such as Adobe InDesign or Adobe Illustrator to create the advertisement.  But, a program like Canva or Adobe Express could also be used.

1. Size:

• Standard size: 8.5” x 11” (letter) or 11” x 17” (tabloid) for posters.
• Ensure that a bleed area (typically 0.125 inches) is included for edge-to-edge printing.

2. Resolution:

• Minimum resolution of 300 PPI (pixels per inch) for clear and crisp images.
• Use high-quality images that are not pixelated or blurry. Our blog post “Finding Image Resources” provides some good websites for image materials.

3. Color Mode:

• Use CMYK color mode for print to ensure accurate color reproduction. If you’re using Adobe Photoshop, use RGB color mode for the image, and let InDesign/Illustrator convert the image when the PDF file is created.

4. Fonts:

• Use legible fonts that are easy to read from a distance.
• Limit font styles to 2-3 for a cohesive look.

5. File Format:

• Submit final artwork as a PDF file for best quality.
• Ensure all images are embedded, and fonts are outlined.

Follow these specifications to create a stunning print ad that captures the essence of the Timeless Boardwalk!
