Before a design job can begin, you must schedule time to meet with the designer to discuss the parameters of your job. Please come prepared with information on the printer, the size of your job, colors, graphics you may need developed, etc... to this meeting. At this time, we can create a rough draft of your project to work with.

Your "design-ready" package should include the following:

Edited, ready-to-flow text
Edited, ready-to-flow text defined: This text is final. All necessary changes have been made; all parties have reviewed the material. Any editing after this point is only spelling errors and flow concerns.

Final Graphics
Final Graphics are photographs, maps, charts, and any other graphic elements that you would like included in your project. These you will provide on disk, as hard copy (prints/photographs), via email, or as slides. Trees can help you find graphics for your project if needed.

Printer
Every printer has different specifications that must be met to print your publication. If you have not chosen a printer by the initial meeting, Trees can help you find one. It is recommended that you schedule the printing of your project at least two weeks in advance, as printers are busy people. Please bring contact information to Trees with your "design ready" package.
