We respect your privacy.
Any and all your information collected on our secure web site will be kept strictly confidential and will not be sold, disclosed to third parties or reused whatsoever.
Art Guidelines
We want to be your #1 source for bag tags and locker plates, but we also realize that you sometimes want to provide your own artwork. Included, you will find artwork guidelines, sizing & resolution requirements, as well as uploading instructions. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us: 800-528-0828 or sales@tag-up.com
Acceptable Files
Files from Adobe Illustrator (.ai .eps .pdf) or Adobe Photoshop (.tiff .jpg .psd) are preferred. Make sure to package all necessary files (fonts, links, etc) and/or outline all text and embed all images.
You can either supply a single image (non-personalized) and we can run your roster variables for you, or you can submit one high-resolution file per name on your roster. You can work with your designer on this detail when ready to begin production.
Image Resolution
For highest quality results, save all Photoshop, TIFF, JPG or PSD images at 300 dpi in CMYK format. Please keep in mind that low resolution images (mainly JPG, PNG or GIF files acquired from websites) will NOT reproduce well.
Artwork will look different from one monitor to the next so color perception will differ considerably. Please be aware that printed material may not match emailed proofs exactly.
If you know your organizations Pantone number, that is extremely helpful when it comes to accuracy in color matching.
Bag Tags: Laminated Style
The original Tag Up bag tag. Printed in full color with UV resistant ink and sealed inside of a 14 mil thick rectangle pouch. Graphics are printed and cut to size – there is no bleed required on laminated style tags.
Bag Tags: Profile Style
Graphics are typically kept within a 4” x 4” area. Special consideration if the tag runs extra wide (for instance, we have done 7” wide tags, but they were only 2.5” tall). There are no limits in regards to the shape, but we stray away from super tight, rigid corners. The red below is a visual illustration as to where the graphics would be represented on the tag. Please keep the ‘loop hole’ in mind when designing your own graphics – it is a necessity, and we don’t want to cut off any important information.
Custom graphics on BOTH SIDES of the tag. Choose symmetrical (round / square / triangle / oval / rectangle / etc) or asymmetrical (custom shape to your logo / customer choice).
Locker Nameplates: Standard Shape
Standard locker designs are pretty straightforward. In the illustration shown below is for a 2” x 10” locker nameplate, but the margins, etc are applicable to all standard size locker plates. Always add .2” to size of locker nameplate for bleed.
NOTE: There are several mounting options for standard locker nameplates.
Bracket (Black, Polished
Silver, Satin Silver, Rose Gold, Yellow Gold)
Velcro Dots
Magnet
Tape (Repositionable or Permanent)
Extended Mount (ask your sales rep for details)
Locker Nameplates: Profile Shape
Profile locker nameplates will all vary in size and shape. The size you desire is based on the rectangular part of the plate; the ‘profile’ extension is above and beyond that measurement. Again for sample purposes, a 2×10 size is used as an example. Typically these plates will slide into a bracket, but can also mount with magnet, velcro dots or tape. Design plate with .1” bleed on all edges.
Keep in mind the total spacial area you have available for the locker nameplate. The overall dimensions will be larger than your actual locker plate size. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us: 800-528-0828 or sales@tag-up.com
Custom Medals
All medals come with custom graphics printed to vinyl on the face of the medal. Finishes and sizes are noted below. Drape are included with purchase of medals. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us: 800-528-0828 or sales@tag-up.com
Standard Drape Colors Available: Black, White, Red, Orange, Yellow, Athletic Gold, Green, Navy Blue, Royal Blue, Purple, Pink, Red/White/Blue Stripe
Dry Erase Boards: Sideline Boards
Sideline boards come in standard sizes of 9”x12” | 12”x18” | 18”x24” (with or without handle) | 24”x36” (with or without handle)
These are the final dimensions of the board. Graphics are trimmed to .5” smaller than final size. (ex 8.5” x 11.5” for 9 x 12 board) For boards with handle, handle is centered on top edge 1” from edge of vinyl. Hole size is 3.75” x 1.6”. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us: 800-528-0828 or ssales@tag-up.com

Wall mount dry erase boards can be customized to any size with a maximum size of 48” x 96”. Design is created actual size at 300 dpi. Frame covers approx .5” on all edges, so keep that in mind when graphics are close to edge.
