Send your artwork to a service bureau.

Depending on where you live, in the yellow pages under the catagory "Printing". Look for any printing companies that do film processing and the specialized color houses with the title "service bureau". I hope this helps 🙂

PS> film processing and color proofs can be quite pricy.

Thats what I am afraid of…
do you have MSN or something so I can bug you more often. I live in another country soo.. might be difficult to have them made here. Thats why I am asking b/c a US company is requesting them.

no msn here…but keep this post alive. I would be happy to help.

If you do not have a service bureau or printing company in your area, you may have to send it to another city. That would be pricey too. Have you been able to find any companies like this in your are?

just getting offset or screen printing is hard enough. can call the printing company.. but i am almost positive they dont do it. just basic PRINT. could i have your email address… it’s hard for me to stay on constant since I am busy at work…

First of all, if I was you, I would check with that printing company to see if they could make some film or color proofs for you(if not then that could be a problem). If your artwork is in Illustrator or Photoshop, they should have no trouble outputting this job.

Yup. Sending that format to the US will be all ok. I am on here quite often so if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to add to this post or repost a new question.
