FTP

FTP is the easiest and most reliable method for customers to transfer files to Art Litho Printing Solutions. Simply use an FTP client like Fetch, Transport on Mac OSX or FTP Voyager on a PC. FTP login requires a Username and Password*.

We strongly recommend using a compression utility like Stuffit  (MAC) or WinZip (PC) before sending your files. Compressing accomplishes two things: First, the file size is greatly reduced, making the transfer much faster. Second, the Internet has a tendency to corrupt files in transit, and using a compression utility puts a shell around the file, protecting it from corruption.

FTP Instructions

1. Upload files via FTP client software:
2. Open your Internet connection and launch your FTP client software.

E-Mail

Attaching a file to E-mail is the most common method of transferring files, because almost everyone has access to e-mail. Although it's the easiest method it's also may present some challenges when transferring files. With that in mind please avoid sending files that are over 2 Megabytes via E-mail. 

Email Instructions

   (Use Stuffit on a MAC or WinZip on a PC).
2. Use your email program to attach the files to a message and send it to your Account Manager copying your Account Executive.
