Final artwork: from layouts to printable files! fast + exact + reliable

It does not have to be packaging and stamp-forms all the time:

Pictures, illustrations, colors, line thickness, positioning and typography
always have to be checked before exposing films or going into print.

Correctly used micro-typography will enhance overall optical impression and readability!

As type- and picturesetter I adjust the spacing of headlines and do
a kerning run on the main copy as well - standard kerning pairs can be:
AT AV AW TeToTaTr VeVoVa WeWoWa r.r, and the ligatures fi fl, in case
they are present in the used type-font and the kerning of the font was not perfect.

Next to business- and annual-reports, mood- and image-frochures, posters, flyers or cd covers
the final artwork on packagings usually proofs as one of the most demanding jobs of the trade.

Following table lists minimum sizes for contents of packagings
and gives some advice towards the different print technics:

MINIMUM SIZES FILLING (europe) content e till 100 g/ml = 3 mm content e from 100 g/ml = 4 mm FILLING IN g OR ml 5 - 50 font size 2 mm 50 - 200 font size 3 mm 200 - 1000 font size 4 mm more than 1000 font size 6 mm MINIMUM SIZE COLLECT-PACKING: filling of single package under 50 font size 3 mm 50 and up font size 6 mm

PRINTABLE FONT SIZES Tief-/Offsetdruck pos. 4,5 neg. 5,0 pt Flexodruck pos. 6,0 neg. 7,0 pt screenprint pos. 7,0 neg. 8,0 pt TEXTDISTANCE TO FOLDING+CUTTINGLINES Tief-/Flexodruck 5 mm Offsetdruck 3 - 5 mm stickers 2 - 3 mm collect-packaging 10 - 15 mm LINE THICKNESS FOR COLOR-JOINTS Tief- 0,5 Offset- 0,4 Flexodruck 0,7 mm MIN. LINE THICKNESS HIGH VOLUME Tief- 0,2 Offset- 0,2 Flexodruck 0,3 mm MIN. LINE THICKNESS NEGATIVE/WHITE Tief- 0,3 Offset- 0,3 Flexodruck 0,4 mm

Sizes of the filling are demanded by european law - my advice for the various
print technics counts for high-volume publications and long print runs.
