Guidelines for preparation of print materials
Prepress department workers will take over your order and prepare it for printing within just a few hours. Print data should be provided as single PDF pages (PDF/X-1a version recommended).
It is desirable to also include a model of the entire work as a part of the order and possibly digital proofs in accordance with ISO 12647-7:2007 as well.
Part of the prepress workflow check is of course ensuring content correctness and elimination using color print sheets before the actual exposure on printing plates. After approval we transfer the data using CTP technology on printing plates to guarantee a high-quality print.
Technical facilities of the prepress department:
- 2x CTP Creo VLF Trendsetter 4557 (maximum printing plate format: 1143x1448mm)
