There are a few things you can do to prepare a document for printing by a
commercial printer.
Plan your document first Write out and sketch out your document If you do not know the proper size of standard documents, give us a call and ask, this could save valuable time and money. Remember that printing machines are mechanical and must use mechanical fingers to hold the paper as it passes through the machine, therefore some of the paper can't be printed on. If you want your document to "bleed" (print from edge to edge) as in the Wild Bill's Hunting Club
brochure shown here, it will have to be printed on oversized paper and trimmed on all sides and this adds expense to your project. There are thousands and thousands of fonts and nobody has them all.
If you buy or find a "unique" font, be sure your printer has it too or it may be useless. Some fonts print better than others, for more information on fonts see our page on File reparation.
