COMPANY OVERVIEW & LOGO

Exhibitors each get a 100-word overview and their company logo in the EyeforTravel Show Guide.

OVERVIEW

This is strictly 100 words (no more). The idea of the overview is to simply give a brief description of your company ‘products & services’.

COMPANY LOGO

Your company logo must be saved in an EPS format and saved in outlines.

Please submit your company overview together with your company logo to Julia Savage – julia@eyefortravel.com as soon as possible but before Friday 31st October at the very latest.

EyeforTravel will not be responsible if your logo and overview is not received in time or in the right format. We also reserve the right to change your company overview if it is longer that 100 words.

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Show Guide will be produced in A4 (210mm x 297mm), our designer has asked that all artwork be produced to this size. Please supply electronic artwork as a Press Optimized PDF with the fonts embedded.

A COLOUR RUN-OUT OF THE AD MUST ALWAYS BE SUPPLIED WITH ELECTRONIC FILES. IF THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE A FAX IS REQUESTED TO MATCH FONTS FOR PAGE LAYOUT.

Also note the following:

If the advertisement is to cover the overall page, it should be supplied with crop marks and bleed of at least 3mm.
