How to transfer a file to or from Makeda

If you have some digital work to send to Makeda, you have several options. Which option you choose depends on how much of a rush you're in, how sensitive the data is, and how much data there is.

Email attachments work great for an attachment size of under 10 MB. If you plan to send a whole folder of files via an email attachment, you must 'zip' up the folder into a single archive.

For files larger than 10 MB, but less than about 1 GB, your best bet is FTP. Remember that, like email, FTP is not secure against eavesdropping. For any sensitive data you may have, ask us about our secure FTP server.

FTP basics

Makeda's FTP server can be found at ftp://ftp.makedapress.com. This is not an anonymous FTP, so you'll need to first ask Makeda for a user name and password. More details about how to access the FTP site can be found on the FTP wiki page.
