BASIC REQUIREMENTS
------------------
Electronic Print Media Service images require application(s) that
are compatible with TIFF and/or EPS file formats. The TIFF images
are saved as TIFF files in Adobe Photoshop. EPS images are saved as
Adobe Illustrator 1.1 or 3.0 files. Any other hardware requirements
will be based primarily on the applications you use and the type of
final output you plan to produce. For best results, your printer
should be PostScript compatible.
ART SELECTION
-------------
** Tearsheet Magazine **
Tearsheet contains a printed pictorial index, which provides
thumbnail and file name for each image in the issue.
** Multi-Ad Search **
Because keywords and descriptions are attached to the image
files, they can be used with Search. When you Add Files to your
catalog, Search will pick up the keywords and descriptions from
the image files.
USING THE CLIP ART
------------------
** PAGE LAYOUT PROGRAMS **
Open your page layout program, create a new document and place the
TIFF and EPS files as you would any other pictures. The following
page layout programs are compatible with both TIFF & EPS file
formats:
*PageMaker
*QuarkXpress
*Corel Publisher
** DRAW PROGRAMS **
Open your draw program, then Open or Import the EPS file. These
images can be manipulated like any other EPS image. The following
draw programs are compatible with the EPS file format:
*Illustrator
*FreeHand (TIFF files can be placed into a document, EPS files are opened as a document)
*Corel Draw! (TIFF files can be imported into a document)
*Canvas
Many of your Electronic Print Media Service EPS images are provided
as layered illustrations. This means that several elements can be
lifted out of a single image and used as stand-alone artwork. In
order to pull apart or separate the layers of an EPS file, a
PostScript draw program is necessary.
** PAINT PROGRAMS **
The TIFF files are either 300 dpi black and white images or
170 dpi grayscale, duotone or color images; the photos are
offered in 300 dpi and 170 dpi. They can be manipulated like
any other TIFF image in the following programs:
*Photoshop (EPS images are converted to bitmap images)
*Corel Photo-Paint (EPS images are converted to bitmap images)
*Canvas
If your application was not listed above, please refer to your
software manual for compatibility.
