If you would like a custom or printed product, please speak with one of our Custom Product Sales Representatives at (800) 233-2630 or fill out the quote request form below. The following is a guide for file requirements during the quote process and final production.

  • For initial quotes, PDF or .JPEG files are preferred.

  • Final print files must be in Illustrator EPS vector format with text converted to outlines. Think of it as cutting out the pieces of art and then placing it on a clear bag.

  • Images within the file must be embedded. If images are linked instead of embedded they will not be on the printed final product.

  • Images must be at least 300 DPI (resolution). Lower DPI than 300 at the actual size of print can not assure that the image will be printed as clear as shown on the screen.

  • In addition, we appreciate if artwork is on a die line of the bag or box to ensure proper logo placement.
