We’ll check your artwork to ensure it’s print-ready, but here are a few things to watch for: correct dimensions, embedded fonts, high resolution (300 DPI), and the use of CMYK colour mode.
Do you provide proofs before printing?
es, we offer digital proofs for approval before proceeding with the print job. This allows you to ensure everything is correct before we start production.

Digital printing is great for smaller runs with quicker turnaround times, while offset printing is more cost-effective for larger volumes. We’ll help you choose the best option for your project.

Can you print custom sizes?
Yes, we can accommodate custom sizes for most print jobs. Let us know the exact dimensions, and we’ll tailor the print to your specifications.
What is the difference between full-colour and spot-colour printing?
Full-colour printing uses a combination of four colours (CMYK) to produce a wide range of colours, while spot-colour printing uses specific pre-mixed inks for more precise colour matching.
What is the best way to protect my printed materials?
We recommend using protective coatings, such as laminates or UV coatings, to keep your prints safe from wear and tear. For more delicate materials, we can advise on the best storage and handling methods.
Can I print on both sides of the paper?
Yes, we offer duplex printing (printing on both sides) for many products, including brochures and business cards. Let us know if this is part of your project requirements.
How can I ensure my print materials match the colours I see on screen?
Since screens display colours in RGB, we use CMYK for print. For accurate colour matching, it’s best to request a proof or work with a Pantone colour guide. We can help ensure your colours come out as expected.
What if I need my print job urgently?
We offer expedited services for rush orders. Please contact us with your deadline, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.
