One of the most common mistakes when creating print data is missing links. What are links? What problems can they cause when printing, and how do you fix the problem? We explain it to you!
Links are always external file elements, such as a logo in .EPS or .AI format, which you simply drag or place into the actual print file during creation. For example, you have created the design of a business card, and the company logo is still missing. You simply drag this company logo from your hard disk into Adobe Illustrator and place it. The logo appears in your actual print file, which you then upload to us in the customer area - but it is only "linked" and no longer included in the actual PDF file. Unfortunately, this error has not been fixed by Adobe to date.
If you order a print product that has to be placed once again on a print sheet by the prepress department, it can happen in the worst case that the linked file that was only dragged in, in our example a logo, is not printed as well. Recognizing this is not part of a data check and, if the prepress employee is not paying very close attention, can lead to faulty printing without any warranty .
Very simple. To ensure that the logo file is actually in your project file, proceed as follows:
Now your PDF and Adobe Illustrator project file contains all the externally created elements.
