***Before submitting an entry to the contest, note the file delivery specifications differ from QuickBooks for Windows***
The winning design will be bundled with a future version of the Mac version of QuickBooks. Since this form isn’t for a particular business, there are no logo, brand, or color requirements. Users can add their logo or brand themselves in QuickBooks. Abstract elements are preferable to literal ones (e.g. an image of a camera for a photography business).
Final art should be delivered as:
• PDF-formatted preview (to show what the artwork should look like)
And
• Vector art (AI or EPS format)—Any bitmap images in the file should be at 300 DPI
Or
• Photoshop format (PSD)—All layers should be unmerged/preserved; images should be at 300 DPI
…for a total of 2 files (PDF and AI/PSD). This will ensure that we can reconstruct the forms in the QuickBooks for Mac forms layout program. All files must be compatible with Adobe Creative Suite 3 (CS3).
All other specifications below apply.
