5-10p: one-colour print
60: full-colour print

-You can't run a 5000 job on full-colour -- this is too expensive. It must be done using Litho print instead.

Things designers get wrong
  • Bleed - ensure your document has a 3mm bleed with cropmarks/ticks.
  • Brochures/booklets must be sent as single pages NOT spreadsheets.
  • Don't use spot colours with transparencies - this doesnt work. Set up your document as 'overprint' in an individual file instead. 
  • Image size - this can make the file very large which slows the process down.
  • Make sure you keep your image at 300dpi.
  • With booklets, try to work in 8s, 16s or 24s
