  • Newspaper Advertising Technical Specification

    ColoursAll colours used with the supplied advert should be defined as CMYK process colours. Pantone or spot colours must be converted to CMYK process colours. Avoid using the over-print function unless it is for vector graphics and/or text reproduced from 100% black or a tint of 100% black.

    Photos & Bitmap GraphicsFor photographs and bitmap graphics (non vector artwork) in advertisements: all mono files should be saved as GRAYSCALE JPEGs. All colour files should be saved as CMYK JPEGs. Photographs in particular should be colour-corrected, for newspaper use, to take into account dot gain when published. See below.

    Dot Gain & Ink CoverAll artwork prepared for DC Thomson publications should be altered to take into account an average of between 18-26% dot gain. The maximum ink cover on our press, where four CMYK colours overlap, should add up to no more than 240%.

    Print ResolutionAt the time of publishing, all photographs or bitmap graphics will be printed at 200dpi. All photos/bitmap graphics must be supplied at a resolution of no less than 200dpi at their final print size.

    Please note that failure to take these directions into account will most likely result in poor reproduction.

    Advertisements That Carry EditorialAdvertisements that carry editorial are subject to a number of restrictions. This is to differentiate the advertisement from editorial within our publications.

    QueriesIf you require further clarification - please contact the member of staff who manages your account to provide details.

    12pt Helvetica Medium in black

    Evening TelegraphAll advertisements that carry editorial must have the words ‘ADVERTISING FEATURE’ in black capitals and in a sans serif font such as Helvetica Medium or similar. Text must be no less than 12pt in size. This should be placed at the top of the advertisement, inside the border and be clearly visable. If the advertisement is floating without a border, please ensure the words ‘ADVERTISING FEATURE’ are within the ad size type area.

    Incorrect MaterialMaterial not supplied correctly may be rejected.Note: It is assumed that supplied material complies with our published specification and as a result may not be fully checked.

    Final Checklist

    DeadlinesFor completed advertisements, 2 days - prior to publication by 5pm.Late delivery of material reduces the amount of time required to complete our checks. No compensation or responsibility will be assumed by DC Thomson if the material is delivered beyond our published deadlines.

    Reproduction IssuesSmall type, particularly serifed type, reversed out of coloured backgrounds will not reproduce satisfactorily and is not recommended.When printing on a high-speed newspaper press variation will happen. This means sometimes there is a possibility of mis-registration. Please ensure that text reversed out of coloured backgrounds uses a sufficient point size and font weight characteristic to reproduce satisfactorily. When mixing colours it should be possible to achieve a similar hue and saturation from 3 rather than 4 process colours. Four colour registration black is not to be used. All mono work should be represented as true mono not CMYK mono or registration black.

    We strongly recommend black and white only QR Codes. This way they have better scanning reliability. Save them as GRAYSCALE JPEGs.
