Our pre-press facility is
equipped with state-of-the-art technology to meet our
client's high standards, and our pre-press team ensures the
best processing results with necessary value addition for
all jobs. We produce artworks as an added service to our
clients. Any artwork received from an outside agency is
first checked digitally to understand its true nature for
quality reproduction and modified after consulting the
client. Images are retouched and color corrected as required
on Apple G4 PowerMacs and Intel Pentium 4 systems. If
needed, custom color profiles are created for special needs
and applied on the job. Scanning is done on a high-end,
flat-bed scanner.
We are familiar with all
the popular desktop programs including Adobe PageMaker,
Illustrator, Photoshop, In-design, Quark Xpress, CorelDraw
and Postscript. The edited files are proofed accurately on a
color-calibrated inkjet printer HP5542 running on a Kodak Matchprint
RIP for client's approval. The RIP allows extensive
color management through ICC Profiles and ensures as close a
match as possible with the printed press sheet. We also
provide PDF soft proofs through e-mail. After receiving the
client's approval, the job is prepared for output. With all
the bleeding, trapping, registration and cut-crease marks, a
full size imposition is prepared with GATF color bar on
every single job. This file then is ready to be imaged on an
Imagesetter or CTP/CTCP System. This process ensures perfect
registration and sharp screen on press and even the
screening and dots are adjusted according to the nature of
the job. Various types of screening are used from
conventional to Stochastic/FM screening. This system of
creating fully imposed flats is very useful for faster and
sharper registration on press.
Our in-house pre-press has
a complete backup system for all jobs processed by us. This
archive provides the customer with the unique facility to
recall any job, any time and reprint it. Due to the nature
of our files, any change can be carried out before
reprinting a job.
Other digital activities
such as data sharing and converting print-jobs to PDFs,
which can be used by the client for their website, are also
offered. We also maintain an extensive digital library of
logos, product shots and stock images for our clients. Any
pre-approved image can be retrieved easily and used for
current jobs. |
