Sending and Receiving Files

Our Online File Uploading Page allows you to send or receive files to our production department. When you send files you are prompted to enter information about your job so we can properly process the information. Then select your file using the file browser tool, click "send file" and you are off and running.
If you enter your e-mail address we'll send you an e-mail to confirm that we've received your file. Please note: * Your file must be "stuffed" or "zipped" to prevent corruption (see File Compression below). * The Maximum file size that can be transferred is 25MB. * If you transfer your file a second time, it must have a different name.

File Compression

An additional benefit of a compression utility is that it allows you to send multiple files or folders in one file. Compression software will create a file in one of several formats including .zip, .bin, and .hqx. Click on the software titles below for information on how to obtain them.
