Why files should be checked by those who follow production
The checking of print files should be done by whoever follows production, because only those who know the printer's paper, finishes and machines can spot errors before they become costly. A file that looks perfect on screen may have problems with colour, margins or images. In Cantù, in the province of Como, our team checks every file.

Want your files checked?
Send us the project: we will check it before it goes to the printer.
RGB is the colour system of screens, based on light; CMYK is that of printing inks. A file created for the web must be converted before going to the printer. In Cantù, in the province of Como, we convert and check files for catalogues, brochures and flyers.
Bleed is the artwork that extends beyond the final format, so the cut leaves no white edges; safety margins keep text and logos away from the cut. For companies in Como and Brianza we set them in every project, in Cantù.
The resolution for printing is much higher than for the web and depends on the final format: the image must be supplied at the actual print size, otherwise it looks pixelated. For companies between Como, Cantù and Milan we check every image before it goes to the printer.
You need product photos that are consistent in lighting, framing and background, plus a few lifestyle images, planned together with the layout. Our in-house studio in Cantù, in the province of Como, produces the photo shoots for the catalogues of companies in Brianza and Milan.
A QR code on printed materials should be large enough, with good contrast, accompanied by a line explaining what you will find after scanning and tested before printing. There is only one call to action, with a clear verb. For companies in Como and Brianza we handle it in Cantù.
