Ad Placement

  • We follow "first pay,  first serve" until the available ad spaces are fully booked. Subsequent orders will be placed on a waiting list for the next edition.
  • Individual ad placement is not possible.

    Deadline for Data & Approval

    • The deadline for order & data delivery will be 2015 March 4th.
    • You will receive a professional software proof PDF of your page asap prior to printing if you are early enough.

    Data Requirements

    Print-ready PDF-X3 files have to be delivered to production[at]evenios.eu no later than the deadline.
    Incoming ad files are then checked for quality, format and technical specifications. Print-ready corrections for the ads can be sent in within 2 days of proof delivery.

    Please note that we reserve the right to reject an ad, if it doesn't meet international ethic standards or the purpose of the publication. If in doubt, we suggest that you send in an early draft for check of compliance.
