These should be in PDF format or a high-resolution image format (150 DPI TIFF, JPEG, BMP.). The more material you give us, the less time we have to use to make the ad, and the less you will be charged. Send all artwork, text, etc. to office@muslimlinkpaper.com.

Design Tips: Focus on your message. Only use images that are relevant to your message. Don’t use too many fonts or very strange fonts as they tend to distract from your message. White space can be used to direct the eyes to important areas on your ad. Ads should not appear overloaded or crammed with information. Focus on your message.
