Design Using state of the art Apple Macs and printing industry standard software, our experienced staff can prepare the print ready files for all your newsletters, posters and marketing material. If we are printing direct from your Word, Publisher, PowerPoint and Excel files, we will check your logos and graphics comply with corporate standards and simply get on with the job. If you need a PDF emailed back to you for uplifting to the intranet, then that is all part of the service. We can accept work by e-mail or, alternatively for larger files, by using our FTP site “FileZilla” (see our Plant List & Artwork Information brochure for more details). Digital Colour For top quality production colour, the Xerox DC700 is the answer to all your short run print on demand needs. We produce over 60,000 colour prints per month from business cards to prestige reports. For those just-in-time jobs, a same day or next day service is the norm with many customers preferring to email their files to us as a PDF or in Word, Publisher and PowerPoint. This print on demand service means you can target your print run to match your budget and cut down on unnecessary waste by ordering too many copies. If the need arises, run lengths can be as low as single figures and all print files are archived for easy retrieval or any additional copies so we can get into production within hours. We now also offer an on-the-run personalisation service. This is ideal for certificates or for direct marketing to key clients and does not cost any extra! Multiple lines of text can be placed on one piece of common artwork to give a real professional look and give the document added value. We can print on a wide range of stocks - silk, gloss, uncoated and even recycled. The quality is as near litho as possible as the press is controlled by a Fiery RIP to ensure industry standard colour.
