Submitting Artwork

A Quick Guide to Preparing Your Illustration Program

We support vector-art that can be converted to and worked on in Adobe Illustrator; please check with your software manufacturer's customer support to verify
Adobe-brand type only (we suggest 9 pt. Helvetica or 9 pt. Tekton for readability); only in Macintosh-created art will we accept system fonts (e.g., Geneva, Monaco, etc.) because these are searchable/replaceable with Adobe fonts. We do not use or support TrueType or other Windows system/screen fonts.
