Packaging & Printing
We supply all of the standard cases & packing options in addition to a wide range of special packaging. Bespoke and custom print finishes are available, such as lamination, Spot UV and embossing all of which give you the opportunity to create a unique and personal design for your product.
Supplying Artwork
We prefer Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop files and artwork should ideally be supplied as a press ready PDF. This can be uploaded to us directly via our FTP server (log-in details available on request), Dropbox or any other Web file delivery service. Alternatively, if preferred you can post it to us on a CD or USB memory stick.
We can supply you with design templates for all of the print & packaging that we supply, with the most common formats available for direct download on our print templates page.
Specifications
Exact specifications can be supplied upon application and should you need any assistance in preparing your artwork, our designers are on hand to help you with any questions or provide you with a complete design service if required. If you are designing artwork yourself, we strongly recommend that you download our Supplying Artwork Guide as it offers detailed information on how to set-up artwork correctly for print.
Key points to remember when supplying artwork are:
- Always include a colour proof so that we know what the end result should look like
- Include all fonts used (both screen and printer fonts)
- If you are using Illustrator we recommend that you convert all fonts to outlines
- Make sure that all of your scans and image files are CMYK colour, 300dpi at reproduction
- Always include 3mm bleed and trim marks.
Proofs
Before any order is committed to print, we will supply you with PDF proofs for final approval – hard copy match proofs are available on request as a cost extra option.
