This addresses the issue of transporting artwork to the Printer or Bureau, and what they are prepared to accept (it will also touch on the use of PDFs, but this will be covered in more detail elsewhere). Common errors of submitting files via email or FTP, as well as providing files from one platform to another are addressed here. Email and FTP are excellent methods of file transfer as there are no disks to retrieve, receipt of the file can be guaranteed via some email and FTP programs, and most printers and bureaux now have high-speed internet connections.
