The con book is created in InDesign. Generally we take the previous year’s files and strip away what we don’t need then add in current info. The files get very large due to the image resolution required for print.
The con book is a full sized “magazine” at 8.5”x11”.
We generally get it printed at Short Run Printing Ltd. and are happy with their quality and price.

CMYK, 350DPI w/ a .25" bleed or larger (we can go as low at .125” bleed but sometimes need the extra working room)
Acceptable formats include PDF, PSD, TIFF, PNG, and high quality JPGs. Honestly we can take almost anything.

We cannot promise a particular location (such as lower right for a 1/4 page) so the bleed needs to go all the way around and we will crop images as necessary.
