Frequency: Bimonthly
Type: Newsprint tabloid
Trim size: 10.5 x 14.5 inches

Mechanical requirements:

  • Electronic: PDF files only. Ads must be correctly sized with all fonts embedded. Type 1 fonts are strongly recommended. Art must be gray scale (black and white) only. Do not include crop marks or ID slugs in the PDF. InDesign users should generate Postscript first, then use Acrobat Distiller to create the PDF. E-mail PDF to Mike Duffy at duffym@aprweb.org.
  • Hard copy: Camera-ready copy only. Positive preferred. Negative (emulsion side up) acceptable. Laser output should be printed on bright, white paper with a resolution of 600 dpi. Inkjet output is not recommended. Art must be in place and screened at 85 lines.
  • General: Background screens should be 15% to 20% of black. We recommend that advertisers avoid fine type, especially if the type is reversed (white on black), and dark or low-contrast art.
    Note: APR is printed on newsprint using a cold, web-offset process. Dot gain = 30%.
