Different types of paper are used for different purposes. For example, you wouldn’t want letterhead to be glossy, but a glossy business card can make all the difference in the world. Typically, the different paper finishes are matt, laminated, pulp, glossy, UV coated and more. Paper also has a range of thicknesses. Ask your printer to see and feel the paper samples. There is a paper out there that is perfect for your project.

How can I comfort myself that the job will be right?
Like anything in this world, there is never a guarantee. Most printers can show you many examples of work that they have done for other clients. Examine the quality… this is the best testimonial to a Printers’ ability.

What are the popular methods of printing?
Printing is usually executed using one of two methods, digital and litho. Digital printing is often used by small print companies as it is more affordable and delivers a faster turnaround. Liitho printing however, offers a much higher quality result. If you are working with a graphic designer, they will often ask how it will be printed, as this will have an effect on how the file is designed, as well as the overall quality of the finished piece.]]>
