An odd thing about print designers is that they are rarely seen around printing presses. As a result, few are truly familiar with the capabilities and limitations of the printing process...and that can lead to expensive mistakes.
Nasty Shocks
Many designers present their clients with work that looks great on screen but makes them wince when it is delivered from the printers. You might have seen the results — blotchy blues; two vibrant colours that were supposed to gradually fade into each other in a rich hue yet collide in a grey mush instead; black text that comes out as a muddy brown. The list is long, unsightly and costly...but it's also avoidable.
Pleasant Surprises
Thorough knowledge of software is a great advantage but knowing where the design might begin to unravel is the key to success. Em Quad offers a design service that can be tailored to your needs. You might already have a designer but if your job passes through us, we can check the files out before they even reach a press. Alternatively, we can design the piece for you. Our head designer has been producing printwork since 1989 and was involved in the printing industry for over ten years before that.
Language Barrier
We don't just do western language work either. Working with the translator of your choice, Em Quad can lay out both Arabic and Hebrew documents too. Why not take a few minutes to look through our portfolio.
