Community Connections

Dakshina/Daniel Phoenix Singh Dance Company is offering a free Ads in our programs as a part of our community outreach service to local non-profit dance/arts organizations. We invite you to place a free Ad in our GALA theatre at Tivoli square programs. Your Free Ad will be displayed in our programs on March 1 and 2. We're offering this free service to increase the visibility of your organization and as a way of strenghtening the mutual support we can provide to each other as partners in the arts. Ads can be 7.5 inches wide by 5 inches high or 3.75 inches wide by 5 inches high. High Resolution PDF, or Tiff Files are preferred (Word files will be accepted). Deadline is Monday February 25th at noon. Ads can be emailed to info@dakshina.org.

  • TIFF file. This is the format that will actually be used to imbed your ad in the page that is sent to the printer, so no processing will be done on the file, which gives you maximum control. We use 300 DPI, with LZW compression. If the ad is color, the preferred mode is 32 bit CMYK so that no color processing will be done. Black and white ads should be 8 bit gray scale.
  • PDF files. The Portable Document Format can be relatively compact, which makes it easier to transmit. It is critical that either all fonts are embedded in the file, or that the text is included as curves. Otherwise, font replacement will take place, with potentially significant change to the file. We recommend that you preview the PDF file using Adobe Reader which is available free from Adobe. Open the PDF file. Under the File commands, you can select the option to view document properties. Select the fonts Tab. Make sure that all fonts are listed as either "Embedded" or "Embedded Subset". Under the Description Tab you can view other characteristics of the file.
