One-off
or one million today it is easier
than ever to impress prospective customers with high quality full colour
business stationery and promotional material.
Marketing products such as brochures, letterheads, business cards,
leaflets and postcards are now generally printed full colour offset litho
which is ideally suited for short and medium run projects. In general
terms the larger the quantity the cheaper per item, this, therefore, determines
the most economic method of printing. During the last twenty years the
print industry has gone through massive changes since letterpress was
the preferred option. This was followed by lithographic (off set litho)
printing which produced sharper quality with plates being created from
"camera ready" black and white artwork. At this time pre-press
work was done by a specialist reprographic imagesetting studio. One of
the reasons full colour printing was so expensive was that a separate
plate had to be produced for each colour.CTP (Computer to plate) hailed
the arrival of the digital age which allowed graphic designers to bypass
the reprographic studio stage and send press ready artwork direct to the
printers. Digital print, previously useful for one-off large format projects
and too expensive for volume printing now offers a flexible and affordable
alternative. Web offset printing is used for high volume projects
such as newspapers and magazines. Promotional products such as banners,
advertising signs, flags, signboards and t-shirts are normally screen
printed. Print services are classfied under the following categories

Plastic Cards & Security
Products - Hints and tips when shopping for plastic cards. Tough laminated
plastic cards are a great way of creating a lasting impression. Traditional
credit card size designs are now used everyday by associations, businesses,
clubs, holiday, security, tourism service industries and marketing companies
because they are long lasting, versatile and tamper proof. When planning
your plastic card project it is always good to take certain factors into
consideration when creating your design as they will greatly affect the
price i.e. the quantity, whether they are to be printed on one or both
sides, how many colours, how many customised processes required and how
intricate the design. These factors will determine mode of printing i.e.
foil block print or screen print. Foil printing is not capable of reproducing
tints or very fine detail and block is required for each colour and each
side if the design is different on the back. In screen printing a %colour
tint is classed as a separate colour. It is useful to give a pantone colour
reference which allows the printer to match colours thus avoiding disappointment.
Offset litho print is more economic for much larger quantities. Ideal
uses are for prestigious business cards, discount cards, loyalty cards,
membership cards, identity cards and for seasonal incentives or promotions.
Identity cards can be customised to individual specifications with the
addition of Signature Strips, Seals, Magnetic Stripes/Encoding, Sequential
Numbering in a choice of colour cards printed front and back or on one
side only. As there can sometimes be gliches in the initial stages of
design, supply of artwork, print and finishing, it is always much better
for a professional to produce artwork in the correct format than to receive
ready artwork which might not be suitable this saves delays and costly
mistakes. Most companies include the production of standard artwork in
the price so clarify this point when obtaining a quote. In most cases
there is a Minimum Quantity From 200/250 Screen/Litho or Foil Printed.
