Roundtable
Creating Print Ready PDFs: Essential Techniques
What you don’t know really can cost you!
Studies show that our brains prefer identifiable brands. Matching your brand’s colors, fonts and overall design concept plays an important role in communicating your company’s personality (think of Apple’s love of white to communicate their passion for making products with clean, simple designs). In the marketing world we painstakingly pour our hearts into our designs and concepts, meticulously going over every detail.
What happens on the front end when preparing files for print will determine the final outcome. So why leave it up to chance when creating print files - potentially leading to added costs and that dreaded “this isn’t what I wanted” moment. Adding to this, to meet quicker go-to-market demands printers are bypassing native applications files (that require several hands to process) for simpler PDF (Portable File Format) files.
In this interactive roundtable, Don Gordon of Vision Graphics will walk you through the essential techniques of creating print ready PDFs that will ensure you get the results you and your clients expect. Leave this event with marketable knowledge and the peace of mind that comes with knowing how to correctly submit your files!Join us for:
