Full-Color Logo Details

Full-Color Art: Due to our photography process, we need full-color artwork for the logo dome. Black and white or color-separated art cannot be used and will require art charges to make it ready for photography. Examples of good artwork are full color letterhead, business cards, brochures, decals, postcards and color photographs. Artwork must be clean, without eraser or staple marks. Please note that we cannot work from color slides or transparencies, reflective foil, metallic gold or silver. Metallic and fluorescent colors do not reproduce accurately in photography and should be avoided. For best reproduction, artwork should be at least 1” x 1” and no larger than 8”. Size requirements are different for digital art as explained below.

Be sure to indicate if only a portion of the art should be reproduced. The Lapel Pins are round, so look at your art and envision a circle around the logo or some part of your artwork.

Submission of Digital/Electronic Artwork: We accept both PC and Macintosh file formats for digital or electronic artwork. Artwork should be sent as EPS, TIFF or AI files to expedite your order and avoid possible artwork or make-ready charges. Since our software programs may read your PMS colors differently, you must provide us with the PMS colors that you are expecting to see in your photo logo reproduction. Digital and electronic photo dome art should be submitted at least 2” x 2” for maximum quality when reduced to size. The artwork may be e-mailed to: artwork@garlandpen.com. Please include your company name and address, your purchase order number, contact name and phone number to avoid delays in your order. All other inquiries and questions should be addressed to: customerservice@garlandpen.com.

In addition to EPS, TIFF and AI files, other file formats may be acceptable. Call our customer service specialists with your file requirements prior to sending artwork.

Color Variation in Photo Logos: As mentioned earlier, your logo for the dome is reproduced photographically. Please expect some slight variations in your logo color since the photographic system does not see all PMS colors as they appear. Some colors are easily replicated, whereas others are not. If your logo color(s) must match exactly, we encourage you to order a low-cost pre-production sample for approval. What looks great to one client might be unacceptable to another. Samples avoid any chance of disappointment in the reproduction of your logo on your lapel pins.

Art Services: If full-color art is not available, our art department can work with you to colorize your black and white art. Please submit black and white art with your color changes clearly noted. PMS colors may be requested, but please specify if you're using the PMS reference chart for coated or uncoated stock. If not specified, we will match color from the coated section of the PMS color guide. We will match your art as close as the photographic process permits. In addition to colorizing black and white artwork, we can also retouch colored artwork if necessary. Retouching and simple one-color changes will be done for a fee of $25.00 (G) per logo. Complex or multiple color changes will be done at a fee of $50.00 (G) per logo. We will notify you about any additional art charges before processing your order.

No Artwork Available? Logo Selections and Suggestions: Generic/Stock logos are offered when a custom image is not available for the full-color logo dome. These logos are appropriate for fundraisers, company outings, retail gifts, anniversaries, weddings, safety programs and commemorative occasions. For instance, the dollar sign works well for many companies in the financial services field. Our Eagle/Flag logo remains a very popular selection for many companies and organizations. Anniversaries: everyone has one! Our customer service specialists are available to discuss programs and recommend appropriate logos for your company or organization. Check out some of our stock/generic suggestions or contact us for other ideas.

*These logos are also available at no additional charge in colors to match our Photo Logo writing instruments. Please specify if you want these logos matched to the barrel color selected for your order. Note: Each color of a logo is a separate run and must meet the series' minimum quantity per logo color. Combined quantity pricing is not available for logos run in different colors.
