MECHANICAL REQUIREMENTS
SAFETY: For bleed ads there should be no text within 1/4" of trim. All files should be sent MAC formatted. All high resolution scans, fonts and a Quark document of the artwork should be sent with a high resolution PDF. Applications and formats must be indicated. Files should not be RGB nor contain Spot Colors nor have a resolution of 72 dpi. Images at 72 dpi are low resolution and will print poorly. We strongly suggest files to be at least 300 dpi.

We accept the following software: Quark 7, Adobe Photoshop CS3, Adobe Illustrator CS3. We DO NOT accept InDesign or Pagemaker.

1. Create ad
2. Create blank button with nothing on the up, over, down. On the hit behavior draw a box without a stroke the entire size of the banner ad (or even larger, it doesn’t matter)
3. Go back to the current scene and drag that button onto the work area. It should show up as a big blue square. Make sure this button, which is hidden, is on the topmost layer of the .fla.
4. Make sure the button is selected and open the actions panel. Enter code for the button as follows, entering an absolute URL and targeting a "_blank" window (which will open as an additional window in the viewer's browser.)

Actionscript Example:

on (release) {
getURL("http://www.yourURL", "_blank");
}
5. Export your .swf file as usual.
