File Checks: fonts, bleeds, RGB, Oveprint Black, Trapping, Low Image Resolution, Pantone, Cutter Control, UV Masks.

The same detailed control is done for both open and closed PDFs that we receive from our customers and, when needed, we provide technical guidance - tips and solutions to our clients for problem solving.

File editing (montaz): In the appropriate template depending on the print and equipment application.
