Artwork Set Up

When setting up artwork for our display and exhibition stands it is important that you follow our the below Artwork Requirements

1. Create the artwork at 25% of actual size

2. Create a single page document in a high resolution pdf without compression

3. Ensure all fonts are supplied or converted to "outlines"

4. All scans and bitmap images should be converted to CMYK and placed in the 25% document at around 100% at 300dpi. Lower resolution images may result in a pixilation effect on your panel.

5. A 5mm bleed is required

6. Please supply files on a disk with a colour print out, we cannot guarantee the appearance of your panels without some visual reference

7. Please send disk and your visual reference to Display Wizard Ltd, 43 Drift Road, Clanfield, Waterlooville, Hampshire PO8 0JS. Alternatively you can upload files to our FTP site please call for details

Please note: we can also accept artwork Adobe Illustrator, In Design & Photoshop and also Quark Formats

Please be aware that some products especially banner stands will require a tolerance at the the bottom and or top which will not be visible on the completed product  due to hemming or rollers. Please check the artwork requirement pdfs for information on our individual products.

If you require us to set up your artwork our design team will be happy to assist, the setting up the artwork for a banner stand can cost as little as £45.00 + Vat - please see examples of our work on our Large Format Graphic Design page

Helpful Hints:

Be aware that at exhibitions and shows can be expensive and that many of your target audience will be on the move and as such you only have a short period of time to make a impression it is important to ensure that your display whatever its size is as effective as possible.Therefore unless your product or service is particularly technical or is being shown to a group of specialists "less is usually more"

Ensure your Company name/logo is prominent

Use hi resolution images

Use bullet points if practical to your product/service

For Banner Stands check that your design will not be obscured by rollers, hems or headers

For Pop Up Displays we would recommend that the design for the "D" end panels is kept simple as these will be wrapped around to the rear of the display rendering all but the front third out of view from the front, These panels are best suited to secondary graphics such as your company name or web address viewed vertically - see example below
