Prepress services for print, sign and production shops.
Three focused services, each with its own inputs, outputs and limits. If your case does not fit, upload it anyway and ask - we will say whether we can help before you pay.
Print-ready artwork covers the file a printer needs. Logo digitizing rebuilds a customer logo as clean vector paths. Vector conversion cleans up raster or PDF artwork for a specific production process. All three are reviewed by a person, not returned by an automatic converter.
Print-Ready Artwork
A design file is not a print-ready file. Print-ready artwork has the right page size, bleed and trim area, outlined fonts, a known colour space and clean, production-safe paths. We prepare that file from the artwork you already have.
- Print-ready PDF with correct page size and bleed
- Fonts outlined (or a clear note when a font must be replaced)
- 300 DPI raster images placed at final size
- CMYK or job-appropriate colour setup
Logo Digitizing
Logo digitizing here means converting a customer-supplied logo into clean vector paths for print, signage, vinyl cutting or laser production. It does not mean embroidery digitizing; that is a separate craft with stitch files and a different production process.
- Clean vector logo in SVG, EPS and PDF
- Layered colours where the artwork allows
- Closed paths suitable for cutting
- Outlined text or a note on font substitution
Vector Conversion
Automatic tracing is fast, but a traced file is not automatically a production file. We convert raster and PDF artwork into clean vector paths, then inspect the result for closed paths, stray nodes, text issues and output requirements.
- Clean vector file in SVG, EPS or PDF
- Reduced node count and closed paths where needed
- Separated or clearly named colour layers
- Text handled as outlines or flagged for substitution
