Practical Information for Prepress.
Prepress is the term for the work that takes place before your product reaches the printing press. Our prepress department works with the latest technology. We receive your digital print originals and use them as the basis for creating printing plates via our CTP facility. You will have direct contact with our prepress operators as soon as we start a new job.
Below, we have gathered documents, links, and setup files to support you in creating digital originals.
