SOME IMPORTANT NOTES!
-ALL images need to be rasterized! (Object menu--> RASTERIZE OBJECT)
-Any text needs to be converted to outlines.
-Submissions should be sent as jpegs. (File menu-->Export, Select the jpg format, and in the dialog box after you select ok, be sure to select OPTIMIZE ART, Resolution 300). When doing this, be sure you don't have any excess in the gray area of your screen.
-Half the pages will be upside down! TAKE SPECIAL NOTE OF THAT IN THE TEMPLATE! Be sure your text/images are formatted correctly.
-Keep the background of the bulk of your pages white, please. It's ok for a few to be colored, like your covers, but the rest should be kept white.
-There are bleeds built into the template. Do not have anything in excess beyond these blue lines, otherwise, it will get chopped off in the printer.
