Preliminaries

Online Printing System is a prepress process that bridges the gap between online digital content and commercial print production. The process allows a print house, a client or a graphic designer to create, edit, and approve computer-based online templates during the prepress phase. This process increasingly calls for a Portable Document Format (PDF) workflow environment with output provided by digital printing.

This solution will make your company run more efficiently and profitably by streamlining your business processes, maximizing your resources and eliminating redundant operations.

Products

The site currently supports eight major and popular print products as listed. We are shortly going to introduce more products like logos/mailing labels, vinyl stickers, catalogs, banners, calendars, door hangers and raised ink cards.

There are three options for designing and customizing a product. Click a product on the left-hand panel and choose one of the options.

1. Custom Design: lets you customize the products. Click it to open the design studio and use multiple tools to create your own design.

2. Upload Design: using this option, you can upload your own JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, EPS, AI, PDF and PSD images.

3. Browse Design: use this to select hundreds of pre-loaded templates. Work on them or customize them through our design studio.

The type of paper used for difference purposes is expressed in weight. In the countries following the European system, it is grammes per square metre (gsm or g/m2 or simply g) and in the US system it is Pound (lb).

The paper used for writing/printing (letterheads and such stationery) is generally between 60 to 120 gsm (20 to 70 lb) and is called the paper or text stock. Anything heavier than this is considered the card stock, i.e. the paper used for business cards, postcards, greeting cards, etc.

Substrates, or the material you request to print on, are mostly available in two finishes – glossy (shiny and smooth) and matte (flat and lusterless).

Coated glossy papers reflect the light evenly so they are suitable for almost all types of printing jobs. A matte finish substrate has a smooth texture that diffuses light, resulting in a softer, more subtle aesthetic. Thelack of glare or reflection on a matte finish substrate makes it easier to view and read from different angles, making it a popular choice for products that require readability and clarity, particularly in environments with bright lighting or outdoor settings. Additionally, this type of finish is more resistant to fingerprints, smudges, and scratches, providing added durability and longevity to printed materials.

You can also enhance an image using a glossy or matte f
inish lamination, depending on the substrate you print on. The most unique addition to business cards is silk lamination. Silk lamination is a finishing technique in which a thin layer of silk-like film is applied to the printed surface of a material, creating a smooth, luxurious, and durable finish that enhances the overall appearance and feel of the product.

Printing

Our system supports CMYK, RGB and PMS color systems for producing the most color accurate digital prints. We maintain the most up-to-date RIP software available on the market to convert your files to be able to print your documents with certainty and accuracy.

300 dpi (dots per inch) is the resolution of the output PDF file.

The majority of our products are digitally printed, which allows for the fastest production timelines to meet your turn around needs. Our specialty products, such as, apparel and promotional items, have the ability to be foil printed, embroidered, screen printed or direct-to-transfer for the most long-lasting quality our customers deserve.

Pricing

No, the price list indicates basic prices of products against the speculative quantities. The prices are calculated with regard to the most basic material types, sizes and finishing requirements. As you know, the final printing cost depends on many parameters: material type, method of printing, finishing effects and requirements, single or double-sided printing, quantity, destination shipping charges and the mode of transport. Please use the indicative prices for calculating the basic cost. Once you place the order using the above parameters, we will quickly e-mail you the final, exact cost.
