Create PDF 75 Submitting PDF files When you do the layout of the files yourself, submit your files as PDF files. A correct PDF file meets the following requirements: • The fonts are embedded. • Figures should have a resolution between 150 DPI (minimum) and 300 - 600 dpi (maximum). • All the pages should have the same format/size. • Export to PDF with a high quality profile and CMYK color profile if possible. Such as the ISO coated v2 (ECI) or Coated Fogra 39 profile. • Export to PDF with 3 mm bleed if your document need this. See page 36 and page 50 for more info. • Submit your cover as a seperate PDF file. Before sending the PDF files check also: • Headers and Footers positioned at the same height on every page. • Make sure that on the even (left) pages the pagenumbers are on the left outside and on the odd (right) pages on the right outside. • Are important pages as title pages and chapter pages positioned on an odd (right) page? • Are the ‘front matter’ pages in the right order? See page 46. • Do you submit the file in A4 format? We reduce your file to 81% to the size of 17 x 24 cm. Make sure the core text is in a minimum type size of 12 points, for a recommended type size of 10 points after reduction. • When submitting in A4 format, make sure not to work in ‘Letter’ format. You can check this in the Word page-setup or check your PDF file. How you create correct PDF files from different software packages is explained from page 78 or see the online manual.
