Preferred composite pdf file format, ps is also acceptable. In order to prepare PDF files postscript printer drivers ought to be used. Fonts must be attached to the file if they are used. Should a publication contain the editorial page, it is necessary to add the footer of our printing house:

The whole publication should have the same page setup (format location - most favourably, if one publication page is centred on one print page).
