Electronic Ad Submission To ensure that your ad appears exactly as you intend it to, The Daily Progress preferred software for electronic ad delivery is Adobe Acrobat Distiller 4.0 (pdf). Providing pdf files can minimize inadvertent error and help to ensure accuracy when the ad is printed. Using pdf also allows you to embed fonts and graphics within the file rather than sending them separately further ensuring that your ads appear exactly as you intend. All artwork with- in the pdf’s created must be processed in CMYK. We are not responsible for images printed incorrectly due to RGB, Lab Color, or Index Color. We do know that things can change, however, so our graphic artists and typesetters will still be able to make simple last minute changes to pdf files if you so request. Copies of the The Daily Progress’ preferred Acrobat Distiller settings (Mac or Windows) are available upon request. Although we pre- fer pdf, our intent is to serve you in the way you need us to, and we can and will accept ads in other software formats. A listing of those software applications and their specifications appears below; we can also make requested changes to files submitted in those formats. Whatever the format, The Daily Progress will only make changes to ads as instructed by the advertiser/agency. Should you request such changes, please understand that The Daily Progress will not be held responsible for errors in those corrections. Again, to ensure your ads’ integrity, we will not make major changes in an ad when there is sufficient time for the advertiser/agency to make and resubmit them. Your sales representative will help you determine whether that is possible within the appropriate deadlines. If Adobe Acrobat is not available to you, this list of guidelines should help you prepare electronic ads using other software. If you have questions, please contact The Daily Progress Art Department at 434-978-3436.434-978-7233. Please email all electronic ad submissions to: [email protected]

In order to produce a high quality newspaper ad, press considerations must be addressed at each stage of ad preparation. In particular, the texture of newsprint causes significant dot gain on press. This guide includes specifications that will help compensate for press gain and variances. It is our goal to provide you with the necessary information to build and deliver ads that will reproduce well in The Daily Progress. If you have questions or wish to test prior to submitting, please contact us. The Daily Progress adheres to SNAP standards. These specifications are designed to improve reproduction quality in the non-heatset process by setting coordinated standards for all processes from image preparation to printing.
