Four ways to work
together.

Most clients come for prepress and stay for the rest. Pick the entry point that matches what is actually broken — a file that will not pass preflight, a design that has never been to press, or a whole programme with nobody to run it.

01 — Scope

Prepress only FROM A SINGLE FILE

You have artwork. It is not going on press as it stands. I take the file, find what will break, fix it, and hand back something a printer can run without calling you.

Preflight report — what was wrong, in writing Bleed, trim and safe area corrected Colour separated, spot channels named and overprint set Print-ready PDF/X-4 plus a colour specification sheet

HOW IT IS PRICEDPer file or per SKU. Quoted after I see the artwork — the number depends on how far the file is from printable, and I will not guess before looking.

Design + prepress SKETCH TO PRESS FILE

For packaging and editorial work that starts as a brief and ends as a file on a press. Dielines are built rather than drawn; the structure is decided before the decoration.

Dieline built to the converter's spec Artwork, typography and colour system Proofing and colour judgement with the printer Final print files and an imposition-ready handover

HOW IT IS PRICEDPer project. A fixed fee for a defined scope, agreed before work starts.

Editorial & product systems MULTI-LINGUAL

Catalogue and manual systems across a product range — the kind where page forty has to look like page four hundred in five languages, and the safety text cannot be reflowed by hand every revision.

Grid, type scale and master pages Bilingual and multi-language builds Parameter tables that stay aligned Editable sources, not just finished PDFs

HOW IT IS PRICEDPer range, based on page count and number of languages.

Full-scope programme ONE PERSON, WHOLE CHAIN

Strategy, naming and copy, the visual system, product 3D, print production, the website and the launch assets — run as one programme by one person, so nothing is lost between suppliers.

Programme plan and single point of contact Narrative, design, 3D and prepress in one hand Press liaison through to delivered parts Web build and promotional assets

HOW IT IS PRICEDQuoted per programme, in stages, with a stop point between each.

02 — How it runs

01

Brief

You send the job: what it is, how many, when it ships, and the files you have. I reply within one working day with questions or a scope.

YOU PROVIDEProduct, quantity, deadline, existing files
02

Estimate

A fixed fee against a written scope. If the file turns out worse than described, I come back before spending time, not after.

YOU GETScope, fee, delivery date
03

Artwork and proof

Design and prepress with a proof round. Colour is agreed against the substrate, not against a screen.

YOU GETProof, then sign-off
04

Press handover

Print files, colour spec, and — where the job needs it — me talking to the printer directly so you are not translating between two people who should be talking.

YOU GETPrint files, spec sheet, release note

03 — What I turn down

A short list, because saying no early is cheaper for both of us.

04 — Next step

Send the file you are worried about. If it is fine, I will tell you it is fine and that costs you nothing.
