Copy Preparation
- Files for the Web should be in HTML, Word 2003, Word 2007, or text-only format. We also will accept PDF files and PowerPoint presentations.
- Suggested documents to be converted to a PDF are as follows: manuals, policies, forms, and any other large documents. These are suggestions, thus PDF conversion may occur on a case-by-case basis.
- File names should be descriptive and should contain no spaces.
- Images should be in JPEG, GIF, or PNG format. They should be no wider than 475 pixels and no taller than 400 pixels.
