Helpful Hints

Save Money and Ensure Satisfaction

Size

When figuring out the end size of your product, keep in mind the standard size of paper (A4 - 297mm x 210mm A3 - 420mm x 297mm). Other sizes can be printed on, however, the larger the size, the more expensive.

If your item is small, think about how many can fit onto either the A4 or A3 sheet. This will help reduce costs by minimising the quantity of sheets printed on.

Quantity

When printing on commercial offset machines, there is an initial set-up fee incorporated into the cost of printing. This includes setting the ink balance, shooting and developing the printing plate, and clean down of inks. Therefore if you order a small quantity and re-order again in a few months, you will be paying the set-up fee twice. If you order double the amount initially, you get more prints for less.

Keep an open mind

There are many different avenues you can go down in the printing world. Be flexible and ask questions. Many times there is something similar to what your wanting, for less cost. Global Graphics Design and Print is dedicated to providing outstanding quality products at affordable prices, that exceed our clients expectations.

FAQ's

What is a proof?

A proof is a copy of the artwork designed for your job. It is an example of the layout that will be printed for you.

Why do I need to sign the proof before print?

Global Graphics Design and Print provide proof to our clients to ensure accuracy in the finished product. It is extremely important

to double check all spelling, numbers and positioning before singing the proof.

Do I still need to sign a proof if I supply the artwork?

Yes! Output devices process digital information using various processing languages. By viewing and signing a proof, you will ensure that the output device we have used to process your artwork has interpreted and processed the information correctly.
