Before going to print all jobs must go through the pre-press stage. This is where we make sure the print job is perfect and completely ready for print and press ready. You may not have the right type of files or even have missing elements in your design, but that's OK, this is where our skilled pre-pess team really shine.
Pre-Press

If you are suppling us with a copy of your artwork, our professional graphic reproducers can assist you in solving any problems you may have when preparing the file for final print. From redrawing of logos to redesigning your bookwork, M&N Graphics is able to trap, bleed, retouch and press ready all your Jobs.
Proofing/Ctp Computer to Plate
Gone are the days of film!
M&N Graphics now supply all our customers with hi res proofs from our Epson large format ink jet proofer which is fingerprinted to our presses and Computer to Plate system (CtP) the latest in technology, Digital PDF proofs or non calibrated lazer proofs are also supplied if requested.
All our Jobs whether big or small still require a proof so we can match exactly on our printing presses.
Remember all Emailed PDF proofs will look different in colour on different computer monitors, PDF's are mainly used as an idea of what the job will look like and for checking of type and colour errors.
Scanning
With the introduction of digital cameras, scanning these days is almost obsolete, but we do have a scanner that we still use incase we need to redraw a logo, form, or a customer may still require some scanning of original photos.
