In the world of the digital domain offset litho
is the 'Gold' standard of our print industry.
All print documentation of quality is created
by the technical standards of the litho
process.

This 'quality' in litho publication is the industry
'benchmark' by which the digital press of
today is gradually trying to achieve.

Hand-in-hand with advancing printing
technology goes the incredible development
in reprographics. Our industry now has such
sophisticated digital software tools that can
enable accurate colour grading before the
press runs.

Desktop digital proofing techniques have
enabled our designers and art directors
to proof ‘in-house’ using ICC colour profiles.

This cost and time saving technique can
provide a colour accuracy guide before the
release of artwork to press production.

In this time of the 'pdf soft proof' - which
cannot take into account the colour gamut of
the client's CRT monitor, it is a 'must have'
addition to our toolset.
 

Our preferred printer is the Pureprint Group,
based in Uckfield, East Sussex. They are
chosen for their range and depth of services
and technical expertise, and not least for their
outstanding commitment to sustainability, the
environment and the community.

The printing and finishing processes are the
final stages in the production of a document.
They also account for approximately 60% of
the overall project cost so it is essential that
these processes are carried out accurately,
by people who care and who have a fluid,
communicative relationship with the designers
and project managers.

There are many good printing companies
and clients may have their own preference
for a printer. This is fine and we are happy
to work with any printer recommended
by our clients.

By recommending our preferred printer we
are endeavouring to add not only value, but
also the reassurance that a successful
ongoing relationship offers.
