POINTS TO REMEMBER ABOUT YOUR ARTWORK
COPYRIGHT!
Should you be considering using a piece of clipart or photograph as part of your printed item then we must remind you that the copyright of ALL pictures is held by the photographer or artist (if self-employed) or the employer should that be a part of their job. You cannot use any such image unless you have agreed terms with the owner of the picture and in many cases, paid a fee for such use.
99.9% of all images or photographs found on the internet fall into the above statement and therefore cannot be replicated for your own use. There are professional sites containing pictures that can be purchased for use on your printed material.
RESOLUTION!
Internet images look good on the screen but your screen only requires a resolution of around 74dpi whereas, in commercial printing, a standard resolution is about 300dpi or higher.
All images must be CMYK and NOT RGB. Generally all images from cameras, etc are RGB by default. Subtle changes in colour are likely when converting into CMYK.
