WE WANT
YOUR
GRAPHIC
FILES TO
PRINT
PERFECTLY
We want the same thing that you want. We want your graphic files to print with no fuss and
look like you meant them to. We’ll be honest with you – of the small number of jobs that
don’t print as expected, the overwhelming majority are supplied to us on disk.
Even if you’re a seasoned professional and are used to supplying files for print, read this guide
anyway – our process may be different to what you are used to.
It’s a bit complicated setting up a file for print, and if you’ve not done it before there’s a lot
you need to know. If you read this guide before you start designing, your file should print
like a breeze. Please call us before you start work on anything big or complicated – it’ll save
tears later.
Our designers usually join us after three or four years of study with a Degree or HND in Graphic
Design. From there, it usually takes around 3 months with us to acquire the print process
knowledge and understanding to correctly create graphic files for print.
With that in mind, have a think about whether you need our Hand Holding service (see page 03).
There’s absolutely nothing to be ashamed of – we check files for loads of designers every day.
Whatever you decide, please read this guide in full – it’s the best way to ensure that you don’t
suffer any unnecessary delays and heartache.
HAPPY DESIGNING!
