Design & File Preparation
Not every print project starts with finished artwork. Our design team can help create, update and prepare materials so they are ready for production.
Whether you need a new piece created, an existing design revised or a file adjusted for a different format, we provide practical design support with the final printed product in mind.
Design Support for Print Projects
Our design work is closely connected to production. That means we consider size, paper, folds, binding, finishing, mailing requirements and other production details while preparing the artwork.
This can help avoid problems later in the process and make it easier to move from an idea or existing file to a finished printed piece.
Common Design & File Preparation Needs
- Brochures, postcards and marketing materials
- Booklets, programs and publications
- Business cards, stationery and forms
- Posters, banners and signage
- Invitations and event materials
- Updates to existing designs
- Resizing artwork for new formats
- File cleanup and print-ready preparation
- Bleeds, margins and production setup
- Variable-data and personalized artwork preparation
Already Have Artwork?
If you already have a finished file, we can review it for production and help identify issues that could affect the final result.
If changes are needed, we can assist with adjustments rather than requiring you to return to the original designer for every production issue.
Need Help Developing the Piece?
You do not need to arrive with every detail resolved. If you know what you are trying to communicate, who the piece is for and how it will be used, we can help work through the format and production requirements.
For more involved creative projects, we can also help determine the appropriate level of design support before work begins.
