13. Vinyl Banner Design - Some things to watch for when designing a vinyl banner
Use software that handles CMYK full color output.
There are at least three kinds of software you can use:
- Image editors like Photoshop, Photo Paint, or Photo Impact
- Page Layout programs like Quarkxpress, PageMaker, or InDesign
- Illustration programs like Illustrator or CorelDraw
Generally speaking, programs that are designed for consumers or general office applications are not recommended: e.g., Word, WordPerfect, Publisher, Excel, etc. If you have a specific inquiry, don't hesitate to ask your vinyl banner supplier. A good source of information is the contact person at your supplier.
