Color Settings and Resolution
Your art file should be set to a CMYK color profile. Other settings such as Spot or RGB can result in unexpected color outcomes.
The final file should be print quality, 300 dpi. For assets such as logos and images, make sure these are print quality as well before placing in your art file to avoid grainy outcomes.
