PREPRESS

The word prepress means different things to different people. For Imagesetter, where we have so many services available, we understand it to be all of the preparation work necessary to produce a final product, whether that product is conventional printing, digital printing, presentation materials, websites or multimedia. Some of the elements of what we consider to be prepress are listed below. But, in any event, we are prepared to take on the responsibility for accomplishing your digital communication needs, whether the particular work you need is listed 
or not.

DESIGN SUPPORT

At all times we have on staff, well-trained, highly experienced, graphic designers to assist you with your projects in any manner you choose. 

SCANNING

For your printed materials, we provide the best in drum quality scanning. For your multi-media work, where the end results are much less demanding, we can use a faster scanner and charge less to make your budget stretch further.

IMAGESETTER OUTPUT

True to our original heritage, we still offer the finest in film and RC paper output from our high resolution imagesetters, so you can have your printing done with confidence.

PROOFING

We offer several types of proofs. For proofs from your films, we can make traditional Matchprints. Since many files are not output to film, we offer two choices to proof your files. Our highest quality proof can be run to our Indigo digital press. From this method, you actually get a press proof. In instances where low cost is more important and absolute color accuracy is less important, we can proof your file on our color-calibrated Canon color laser printer.

FILE MANAGEMENT AND CONVERSIONS

One of the great strengths we have developed from many years of experience is the ability to work with files from a wide variety of programs. You don,t always have the luxury of being provided with data in a convenient format. Figuring out what to do (or indeed whether the file can be made to work at all) is frequently a trial and error process which draws more heavily on experience than on established procedure. We can not solve every problem every time, but, with our years of experience, we are better at it than most.
