Submitting Content for Ad Development
File formats
Most image file formats are accepted. Microsoft Word or Apple Pages documents can be accepted for text only.
Resolution
Images should be sent in the highest resolution available. We will ensure the image is properly sized for web view. Logos or other line art needs to provided in a vector-based format such as AI, EPS, or SVG or a transparent PNG for maximum flexibility in our design.
Providing Ad Direction
Please provide as much information about what you’d like your ad to include as possible. Napkin sketches, headline ideas, overall concept, image preference, logo placement, and mandatory information are all helpful information for our designers. Providing as much information up front will speed the development of your ad and increase the likelihood that we get it right on the first proof.
Upload the elements we should use to develop your ad in the client center under the Artwork tab.
