ELECTRONIC PRINT MEDIA SERVICE USER'S GUIDE
-------------------------------------------
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 (version 5.0) files in Adobe Photoshop. EPS images are saved as
Adobe Illustrator 1.1 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.
All documentation assumes you have a basic understanding of how to
use your computer and the programs you have purchased for it.
ART SELECTION
-------------
** Tearsheet Magazine **
Tearsheet contains a printed pictorial index, which provides thumbnail and
file name for each image in the issue.
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:
*Aldus PageMaker
*QuarkXpress
*Ventura 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:
*Adobe Illustrator
*Aldus FreeHand (TIFF files can be placed into a document)
*Arts & Letters (Use Decipher to convert EPS to GED)
*Corel Draw! (TIFF files can be imported into a document)
*Microgrfx Designer
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. They can be manipulated like any
other TIFF image in the following programs:
*Adobe Photoshop (EPS images are converted to bitmap images)
*Gray FX
*Image-In
*PhotoStyler (EPS images are converted to bitmap images)
*Publisher's Paintbrush
*Touch-Up
If your application was not listed above, please refer to your
manual for compatibility.
