To contact us:

We want your print order to proceed with as few problems as possible.

This page lists the important points to check before sending your file to us.

1.              All images should be supplied at 300dpi. This should be set from your scanning software.

2.              Images should be saved in the following formats. Tiff, Photoshop eps, high quality jpeg. Please do not use gifs and other formats, as these will not print satisfactorily.

3.              We can not print your job without the fonts you have used in your document. Either outline all fonts used or convert to curves or send the fonts on the disk.

4.              Your job will be printed on a four colour press using cmyk inks. Please ensure you have not used Pantone or Indexed colour in your document.

5.              In Microsoft Word documents, please note that the colours available to you in this programme will change to a slightly different shade when printed. This is because Microsoft Word is not intended for use as a graphic design package. When sending word documents with pictures embedded, we also require picture files sent separately from the file. We would recommend the use of Microsoft Publisher if possible.

6.              Using Publisher, please link pictures rather than embed them. (You are given this choice when you insert pictures) When sending Publisher files, use the pack and go feature. This collects all the images and the documents together in one file for sending to us.

7.              Finally, please read your document carefully and check spellings

8.              Ensure your disk is carefully labelled. Disks will normally be returned with your job.

9.              Disks are easily damaged, please ensure your disk is carefully packed and your colour print out and instructions are enclosed. To assist us, please write down the programme and version the artwork was created in.
