USEFUL TIPS

Quote Requests... need a quotation?

To be able to produce an accurate quote we need to get as much information as possible. We need to know the open size, folded size, quantity, number of pages, final trim size, paper requirements, binding requirements, colours the job is to be printed in, finishing on the cover (matt/gloss lamination/varnish) etc.If you’re not sure, please indicate this on the request and we’ll fill in the blanks as best we can. If you’re submitting the enquiry via email, please include your phone details as there are often aspects of the quote that need to be discussed before we can quote.
Please also include company details so that we can get it right from the start.

Run on price

When we quote, our software allows for three quantity options, plus a “run-on” price. It’s really no extra work for us to give you two other quantity options – let us know if you want these!Important: The “run-on” price is there so that you can do your own calculations should you want to print extra copies. It only applies when the job comes in and does not apply if you decide to order more copies at a later stage. Please contact us if you’re unsure of how to use the price.
We try our best to hold our prices for as long as possible. Consumables have a nasty tendency to increase in price, and there may be an increase if the quote has been produced some time before the job comes in. Please confirm the price in cases like this.

Files to be supplied in PDF format

If you don’t have Adobe Acrobat Distiller, or the package you’re working in doesn’t support saving directly to PDF, try CutePDF. It is a free download and works just like a printer driver. Instead of printing to a printer, you select “CutePDF” from the printer list and a PDF is created automatically. You can download it from www.cutepdf.com.
Photographs and other colour graphic elements should preferably be saved in CMYK format. Digital printing doesn’t support spot/pantone colours. These colours can be converted to CMYK by us, but it’s better to start off in CMYK than to convert colours at a later stage. We can print from RGB files as well, but these are also converted to CMYK during printing.
