Digital Setup Center > 35mm Slide Setup

The following list contains brief information on how you should properly set up a file for 35mm imaging. Don't hesitate to e-mail our Digital Department or call with any questions or concerns.

Powerpoint
  • Change the page options under File > Page Setup to '35mm slides'
  • Check all slides for a 0.5" 'cushion' around the slide. Some information can be lost if it is too close to the edge.
  • Include any fonts, graphics, or photos with the file.
  • All photos should be uncompressed, flattened, RGB TIFF files.
Image Editing Programs
  • In CorelDRAW, PageMaker, FreeHand, Illustrator or Quark, you must create a color filled box to use as your background. Any color will work, and the box should cover the entire page.
  • Be sure no critical information is too close to the edge.
  • Include any fonts, graphics, or photos with the file. Providing a list with the file helps.
  • All photos (either standalone or included in a file) should be uncompressed, flattened, RGB TIFF files.
