Professional
Scanning
At PrePRESS Solutions we pride ourselves in being the first,
and currently the only company to provide professional scanning
and color separation services in the region. You can have pictures
scanned for a variety of reasons: for printing to your laser
or inkjet printer, for screen presentations, or for posting into
web pages. For purposes of printing to color laser or inkjet
printers, optimal color cannot be guaranteed in these cases because
of certain color management issues regarding monitor and printer
calibrations. World Wide Web scanning is also available in GIF,
JPEG, or a variety of other formats.
Scanning services included:
- From photographs or art work
- Reflective (photographs and printed material)
- Transparency (slides and negative films)
Film and Inkjet Output
PrePRESS Solutions' film output capabilities can provide designers
with the high-quality material required for today's competitive
printing market. File enhancements, trapping, and troubleshooting
are all offered at competitive rates to help your project print
correctly and efficiently. We believe that the easiest stage
of development at which to catch potential problems is during
the creation and planning of the document itself. We can provide
film output up to 2400 dots-per-inch, 150 lines-per-inch.
- High-resolution laser output
- High-resolution film output
- Wide-format inkjet output
- Wide-format laser output
Color Separation
We accept straight color separation of submitted photographs,
artwork, printed images, ganged-up pictures, slides (positive
or negative), or transparencies. Depending on volume and quantity
of submitted originals, standard turn-around time is two days.
Rush jobs can be accepted at special rates. Color separation
charges include color correction, minimal image retouching and
four loose film separations.
With proper coordination regarding file, font and image formats,
we can also do color separation of submitted files ready for
output. Media currently supported are 3.5" PC or Macintosh
disks, 100MB Iomega Zip, and 1GB SyQuest SparQ disks.
When a file is ready to be brought to and printed in the printing
press, separations are created based on the number of inks that
will be printed. When a document is printed using process colors
(also known as four-color printing), any elements in the document
that are not already defined as CMYK colors must be converted
into CMYK. This includes colors originally defined using the
HSL, HSB, or RGB color models, colors selected from a spot-color
matching library and colors scanned and saved in an RGB format
such as TIFF. This conversion can be done either before of during
printing. PrePRESS Solutions typically produces these separations
and prints them onto film using the imagesetter.

Web Page Design
The advent of the World Wide Web has created the ultimate
virtual marketplace, a place where companies around can post
updated information to their clients, employees, or any other
audience to whom they wish to convey information. As a service
bureau dealing with both printed and electronic media, PrePRESS
Solutions offers reusability of scans, text, and other graphic
elements for your Web site. For example, we can convert printed
information pieces and catalogs to World Wide Web pages using
the same scans and publication files used in the prepress production
of the project. This ensures consistency between your applications,
and lowers the production cost incurred. We can give you internet
presence at very reasonable rates. |
