expliCIT - Tech Specs...
The prefered method of submitting advertisments is by email using a high resolution print ready PDF file. We can accept most formats used in industry such as high resolution JPG/TIFF image files, pdf and EPS files. Please include, embed or outline all fonts where required.
expliCIT has a custom full page size of 210mm width by 270mm height. Other advert sizes are listed below. Designers should allow a minimum of 3mm extra bleed on all edges and 10mm margins from the edge of each advert to ensure that text is not trimmed or lost near the page fold.
Please do not hesitate to email or telephone us on 021 433 5270 should you have any questions.
