| A quick guide - Your stamp is ... 1. Words only - use WORD 2. A picture or logo - send it to us as an ATTACHMENT (first save it as a TIFF file) Read the notes on the right to double-check what you need to do. | | |

| Word Document - best for text-only stamps If you can create your stamp as a document in Word, that's almost all that's needed to make an excellent stamp - exactly as you've designed it. But please note the following:
- be sure to work only in black and white, and remove all colours from the document except BLACK. - either make your stamp design the same size as the finished stamp, AND tell us in the email what the finished size should be. - avoid using low-resolution clipart. | | |

| TIFF image - best for artwork created on the computer
If your stamp design is a logo or graphic, perhaps created in Photoshop or any graphics programme, please note the follwing important points: - work only in BLACK / WHITE mode (not RGB, CMYK or grayscale); - work at the highest possible print resolution in bitmap mode (BMP); - get rid of all LAYERS except the one containing the image; - do not include any BACKGROUND to the stamp design; - choose SAVE AS and select TIFF format; - check IMAGE SIZE, and adjust if necessary to the correct size.
This will give the clearest and sharpest stamp results from your artwork. Don't worry if you can't follow all the above - you can always pop your artwork in the post and leave it to us ! | | |

| Scanned images
Depending on your scanner and the way your computer imports the image, this will work fine, but please note the following tips:
- set your scanner to scan in GRAYSCALE mode if possible; - set it at the highest resolution possible; - after importing, convert it to BITMAP (BMP); - choose SAVE AS and select TIFF format; - check IMAGE SIZE, and adjust if necessary to the correct size.

| If you follow the above, then attach the document or file to your email and send it to us, your stamp will quickly be added to our production, and will probably be despatched shortly. Remember - using any of the above methods provides you and us with an image which is almost exactly what the stamp will look like. We will make the stamp exactly as you send it to us. That also means that we won't make changes to your artwork unless you send specific instructions for alterations - for which there may be a charge. | | |
