  A great print job just doesn't end at good Graphic Design, Formatting & Print Quality. Finishing is also a very important part of the printing process, Poor finishing can turn what would be a great finished product into a second rate product, we take pride in every process to ensure consistency when duplicating a work whether it be a bound report or a run of business cards.

• Copywriting & Formatting
  

  Spelling & Grammar, Copywriting, Formatting & Typesetting.
  Graphic design is all about communicating a message or feeling and a lot of attention can be paid on images and aesthetics, but sometimes that attention can distract from another very important element, the written word. A picture say's a thousand words, but it could also be said that the right words can create a very clear picture. When it comes to marketing a product or conveying an idea, you choice of words, your grammar and how they are displayed can make all the difference.

• Self Publishing
  

  We have helped many people and organisations publish their own books, including Family History, Historical, Poetry, Novels, Children's Books, Technical Manuals and limited reprints of books out of print.
  In simple terms the Publisher is the person who pays to produce the books. Thus, in a Self Publishing role, you pay us to produce a specified number of books for you. It is then up to you to distribute or sell them.

  To produce a run of books there are two key elements of cost:

  Setup or Artwork Cost: This includes typing the text, scanning photos, designing the covers and setting it all up in "page layout" format ready for printing.
  Production Cost: Includes printing the contents and the covers, assembly and binding/stapling.

  The Artwork done by us varies from book to book, depending on how much the author is able to do for themselves, and how much they want us to do. In some cases we will do all the typing, in others the author will present us with whole manuscript as a ready-typed computer file. The quantity, standard, and cost of books produced can vary greatly depending on the requirements and budget of the publisher.
