The Section of Communications and Technology in Wooster offers printing and laminating services for basic field day signs. These signs should be created and formatted as specified below and e-mailed to Bonnie Bing at bing.2@osu.edu.

Important:

• Requests for signs should be made as much in advance as possible before the date the signs are needed.
• Revisions to content cannot be made after submission. Make sure your information is typed correctly before sending it. You are responsible for the accuracy of your content.
• Signs that are needed in less than two week’s time may be subject to a rush charge. Overtime charges are assessed at $30 per hour, plus any additional costs related to materials, outsourcing, and project complexity.

Preparation of files:

for 8.5 x 11 and 11 x 17 inch signs:

• Type the information in Microsoft Word.
• Format your page setup to landscape orientation.
• Center the information in the middle of the page.
• Use only bold Arial or Helvetica fonts.

We will only accept Microsoft Word files. Save all 8.5 x 11 inch signs in one document. Save all 11 x 17 inch signs in one document, separate from the 8.5 x 11 inch signs. When sending the files by e-mail, make the documents separate attachments. These should be black and white only for laser printer output.

for larger than 11 x 17 inch signs:

Contact Bonnie Bing at 330 202 3508 or bing.2@osu.edu to discuss options. These signs will need to be output on the plotter and will require special formatting.

Delivery of finished signs:

Finished signs will be mailed to the person who originated the request unless other
arrangements are provided.
