| Submit your files
to be printed.
The best way to send us your files is to email a high resolution
.JPG file to graphics@sdcal.com.
If you're having trouble with your email, or if your files
are too large to send over the internet, you can mail a
data CD with all the necessary files on it to:
SDCal.com
5491 Caminito Agua
La Jolla, CA 92037
If you are purchasing an enlargement,
we have two requests.
First, please make sure that
your image is appropriately cropped to the ratio of the
size you are ordering. In other words, if you are ordering
a 16x20 inch portrait, please make sure that your image
is in an aspect ratio of 4 to 5. This will help us speed
up your order, and will avoid any cropping necessary to
meet the aspect ratio or your desired order.
Second, please send us the
highest quality image possible. This means sending files
that are large in file size. If you are scanning your photograph,
set your scanner to high quality and high resolution. This
will ensure minimal distortion while enlarging your image.
For the best results:
We ask for files that are saved at 100% to be at least at
a resolution at 150 dpi. The highest original resolution
available is best, especially for enlargements.
We can accept the following file
formats.
→ AI (Illustrator
format)

→ Photoshop 2.0 (Photoshop)
→ BMP
→ Photoshop EPS
→ Photoshop DCS 1.0 and 2.0 (Photoshop)
