We've all been there. You need a photo for your publication, you find the perfect one online, and you think "I'll just use that".

Please don't.

Images found online are almost always copyrighted and using them without permission exposes your organization to legal risk.

"Free to use" and "free to download" are not the same thing, always check the license.

Screenshots and social media photos are also never print ready.

Always ask for the original file. Photos pulled from websites or emails are almost always too low resolution for print. The gold standard is always the original file straight from the camera or photographer.

One of the questions we hear most often before an issue goes to print: How many copies should we order?

The answer isn't a guess, it's a plan.

A successful print run starts with your mailing list, then takes into account office copies, upcoming events, sponsors and advertisers, plus a small buffer to make sure you never run short.

We help our clients find the perfect balance, avoiding unnecessary waste while ensuring every magazine reaches the people who matter most.

Here's something we've noticed after decades of producing publications for associations and chambers across North America: The same sponsors keep coming back. Issue after issue. Year after year.

Why?

They're reaching the right people, a targeted, engaged audience almost impossible to reach anywhere else.

They trust the product — a professional publication reflects well on every advertiser inside it.

They see results — members who trust your publication notice and act on the ads inside it.

They're part of the community — advertising signals they support your industry and your members.

They get consistency — same audience, same professional results, every single issue.

The best advertising relationships aren't built on one-time placements. They're built on trust and a publication worth being part of.

Today we pause to remember.

To everyone affected by the events of September 11, 2001, here in Canada, across the United States, and around the world, you are in our thoughts.

Welcome back to another instalment of our CP Style Series.

Today's rule? Per cent.

In Canada, Canadian Press style dictates that per cent is always written as two separate words in text. Not the % symbol. Not "percent." Two words. Per cent.

But here's where it gets interesting... in the United States, the Associated Press Stylebook, which is the American equivalent of CP style, spells it as one word. Percent.

So if you're a Canadian association and you've been writing "percent", you're not wrong. You might just be following the wrong style guide for your market.

We produce publications for associations and chambers across North America, and we know exactly which rules apply where. It's the kind of detail most people never think about. We think about it so you don't have to.

It's back to school season. New backpack. Fresh notebooks. Sharpened pencils.

At DEL Communications, September feels a lot like that; a new season, a fresh issue, and deadlines that need meeting.

Consider this your back to school reminder:

- Have you confirmed your fall issue content?
- Is your member list up to date?
- Are your advertisers and sponsors confirmed?
- Are your photos ready at 300 DPI?
- Is your deadline locked in?

The best publications belong to the ones who plan ahead. Are you ready? Let's talk!

How long should your article be?

When it comes to association and chamber publications, the sweet spot is usually 400–600 words, enough space to share valuable insights while keeping readers engaged.

For feature stories, we recommend aiming closer to 1,000 words to dive deeper into the topic, tell a compelling story, and provide more value to your audience.

A few other tips:�- Include a clear, engaging title (not just a headline)�- Submit images separately as high-resolution JPEG or TIFF files�- Choose visuals that help bring your story to life

Great content starts with the right foundation. Need help preparing your next article? We’re here to help.

If your fall issue is already in production, amazing. You're ahead of the game.

If it's not? Now is the time to move.

Here's why fall issues matter more than any other time of year...

- Your members are back from summer and ready to engage.
- Conference and AGM season is in full swing.
- Sponsors are spending their year-end budgets.
- Holiday deadlines come faster than you think.
- Your members are waiting to hear from you.

At DEL Communications, fall is when we do our best work, helping associations and chambers across North America get their publications planned, produced, and delivered on time, every time.

Want to know the most effective advertising your association or chamber can offer its members and sponsors?

A print publication they actually read.

No algorithms deciding who sees it. No scroll-past. No ad blocker. Just your sponsor's message sitting right next to content your members trust and look forward to receiving. Every single time.

Print advertising in association and chamber publications delivers something digital can’t, a captive, loyal, highly targeted audience.

We help organizations across North America build publications that members love AND that sponsors want to be part.

Because the best ad placement isn't online. It's in their hands.
