Prepress Requirements
Fonts
Supply both screen and printer fonts. If you have EPS files which include text, send the fonts for those files also.
Fonts can vary from vendor to vendor. If you don't supply your own fonts it might result in subtle or obvious differences in your document including text reflow. If you have embedded EPS files which include text that is not converted to curves, be sure to send the fonts for those files as well. You could embed all your fonts or convert text to curves to avoid having to send font files.
Graphics

You must provide us with a colour printout and separations of your artwork. Include a list of all fonts used as well as a list of all the files that appear on your disk. Include a dummy or mockup of your finished project to show how it is to be cut, folded, or bound.
