Need to get a High detailed Pic for RSM. Printing Company messing up!!

[Starlight31]

Need help with getting a better qual photo.  Company asking for an AI file or Corel file.  All I have is a jpg.  My RSM is getting a Medical history wall together in the unit.  Attached is the file.. Please help!!


Thanks...

I would suggest getting a much higher resolution photo - otherwise the print will be fairly small and grainy. Check with the base photo. They may have stock photography..

good luck!

Not sure if this will help or not, made a quick scan of the one I have left from 1RCR when I was in London '88 - 91. (hard to believe it was that long ago)  ;D Sorry it is a little worn looking. I removed it from my jump smock before leaving London.

If you could scan the badge and save it in tiff or png formats which result in a very large file, this would have more detail for the requirement of the printing company.

Question - Where can I get a photograph or electronic copy of my unit badge?

Answer - DHH forwards the original artwork of authorized badges to the Canadian Forces Joint Imagery Centre for archival storage. Requests for photographic or electronic copies of original artwork may be requested from the Canadian Forces Joint Imagery Centre on a cost recovery basis.
