GUIDELINES FOR SUBMITTING PHOTOGRAPHS/IMAGES TO 9-1-1 RESOURCE CENTER
FOR USE IN PRINT/ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS

9-1-1 RESOURCE CENTER encourages its traffic safety partners to submit photos suitable for use in our publications. When submitting photos or electronic images, please follow these guidelines:

Photos for Print: Photographs used in publications that go to offset commercial printing require a high resolution, 300 dpi (dots per inch). If you are submitting photos already imaged onto paper, our staff will scan those photos for the publication. If digital photos are provided, please submit a high-resolution file of the photo, at 300 dpi, in a TIFF or EPS file format. JPEG and GIF formats, while fine for Web placement, are not recommended for offset printing. Please store the images on compatible media such as a ZIP disk or CD-ROM, along with a form clearly indicating what files are on the disk/CD, format, file size, and color values: CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) or PMS (Pantone Matching System).

Photos for the Web: Photos use in electronic publications or the Web do not require high resolution, but if in high resolution can be converted to a lower resolution. Submit these photos on a ZIP disk or CD, with at least 72 dpi resolution, in a JPEG or GIF format. The color value should be RGB (Red, Green, Blue) for images used on the Web. Please include a form that clearly indicates the files on the disk/CD, along with details on those files (format, file size, etc.).
