Spot UV printing sounds pretty space age, but the technique itself is not so very complex. Probably the most high-tech aspect of the process is the fact that it utilizes UV light to “cure” a varnish that is applied to paper or cardstock. This varnish can be applied to plain white cardstock, but is often applied to coat color-printed paper products, sealing in their color, adding shine, and protecting the printed surface underneath from moisture and other types of damage.

The UV coating process is minimally volatile, meaning little to none of the varnish escapes as a gas into the atmosphere. Basically, this just means the process does not contribute to environmental pollution. UV coating can be applied to achieve either a lightly glossy appearance, or a high-gloss shine, depending on the application technique. Business cards, flyers, and other heavier weight papers or cardstocks are best combined with UV coating.

Copyright laws protect most of the images used. So unauthorized copying may lead to legal penalties.

There seems to be a great deal of confusion among many people regarding the use of some terms in digital imaging. One of the more common sources of confusion is the difference between DPI and PPI. The main problem with this is that DPI (dots per inch) is an old term that has been applied to everything relating to resolution and the size of a digital image.

NCR or No Carbon Required books are also an effective marketing tool to make your brand visible. We can offer them in any size and can also design one for you if you need them.

Let’s take a look at the different ways in which books can be bound. Here are a few types of binding.

1. Saddle Stitching – Considered as one of the easiest and most economical ways to bind pages, this is used to bind pages into booklets and magazines that have a lower page count.

2. Perfect Binding – This is the most commonly found bind in books, and go by names of paperbacks or softcover books. They are an ideal way to bind manuals, catalogues etc.

3. Section Sewn – One of the most secure methods of binding, the pages are folded together in sections and sewn together. These sections are then glued together and a cover is attached. We can often find this type of bind in thick magazines.

4.Wire Binding/Spiral Binding – We all have known and used this sort of binding for our college or school assignments. You also find spiral bound notebook in stationery stores.

5. Cased-in Wiro Binding – This is modified way of spiral binding where the wire that is used to bind is hidden when the book is closed.

Yes. But not suggested. MS Office is designed for, as the name stands for, office utilities. We do receive a few inquiries with PowerPoint attachments as artwork but that doubles our time in the graphic designing section because it has to be recreated on Adobe Illustrator.
Resolution decides the quality of images. It means the amount of information available in a unit area. Usually it is measured in dots per square inch (dpi). A 72 dpi image has 72 dots (pixels) in a square inch, defining that area of the picture. Likewise a 300 dpi image has 300 dots per square inch. For web 72 dpi image will be justified. But for printing we need 300 dpi (high resolution) for good results. If we use a low-resolution image for printing the output will be a jaggered and blurred picture. To know whether your image has got enough resolution you have to open it in professional software like Adobe Photoshop or Corel Photo Paint and look for resolution. If you don’t have this software, just by checking the file size you will have an understanding of what kind of image it is. For example, a file size of 1kb to 100kb is not for printing. This is just an indication. Not a rule.
There is no minimum or maximum numbers. Depending on the job the printer will be taking 100 to 500 print runs to get the correct output. Meaning, to print 1 copy or 100,000 copies takes the same make-ready effort. For that reason, printing less than 500 copies in offset will not be economical. The larger the quantity the lower the unit cost.

The highest quality and most appealing print publications are printed in full color using the 4-color (CMYK or Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Black) offset process.

2-color print publications frequently use black and one other color to create a higher impact than can be achieved with 1-color. However, any two colors can be used to create just the look you need without the time and expense of going to 4-color process printing.
