InDesign and Quark have an automatic job packaging feature that you can use to gather all your supporting files that need to be included when transferring your job to us. It’s a good practice to review the Preflight Checklist each time you submit a job to be sure you have everything together. Please call 706-542-7199 if you have questions.
When preparing your files for delivery, please include:
The Preflight Checklist is provided as a service to those who wish to prepare their own job files. The checklist covers problem areas that the Prepress Department commonly encounters that can slow down the production of your job and may add additional expense. This form is primarily for the benefit of the Prepress Department. You still need to contact a UPD sales representative to initiate an official job request and to get an estimate. Please submit this form with your job.
You may bring us your files on CD or flash drive. We no longer accept files on 3.5” floppy disk or Zip disk. You may also transfer your files electronically by Email or by FTP. If you wish to transfer your files by FTP, contact your customer representative (706-542-3861) or the Prepress Department (706-542-7199) to get a user name and password. If you experience any difficulties, and we will work with you to resolve any problems.
Sending files via FTP is the preferred method of transferring files as file size limitations are not an issue. FTP programs are inexpensive to buy and many are free or have free trial versions available. Fetch is a standard program for MAC users and WS FTP for Windows users. Free FTP software is available for UGA faculty and staff from Sitesoft at UGA: www.sitesoft.uga.edu. Follow the link for SecureFTP under the downloads section and download the appropriate software for your Mac or PC. Install the program and use the info below. You will not be able to establish a secure connection, but proceed with making the connection.
To send files by FTP: Contact us for a User Name and Password.
You may experience problems sending files by Email from a “.edu” account as many accounts have file size limitations. If you need to send files by Email and do not have an alternative to your .edu account, you can set up your own Gmail account quickly and at no cost. Set up Gmail account
To send files by Email: ugaprinting@gmail.com
After completing the transfer, please call or Email and let us know you have sent files.
