DEADLINES & FILE TYPES
DIGITAL AD DEADLINES
Please allow a minimum of two business days if the Pacific Tribune will be designing your standard banner ad, and up to two additional days for non-standard digital ads. More complex ads may require additional time.
FILE TYPES
Preferred formats for creative assets:
.psd, .ai, .eps, .fla
Accepted formats for creative assets:
.jpg, gif, .png, .pdf, .bmp, .tga, .pic, .tif, .swf*
If you provide a .swf file without the .fla, we will not be able to edit the file if changes need to be made. In order for us to create expanding ads, floating ads, sliding billboards, interstitials or other complex rich media ads, we must have the .fla file so we can add the necessary code to make the ad function properly. You will also need to provide any fonts used in the .fla file.
*All rich media files compiled in Adobe Flash must be published to Flash Player 8 or higher.
Required assets for a third-party-created premium ad:
(Interstitials, sliding billboards, floating ads and expanding leader boards)
Please provide the .fla file so we can add the necessary code to make the ad function properly. You will also need to provide any fonts used in the .fla file.
