While online printing services have greatly simplified the process of producing marketing materials, companies still need to take note of important elements to ensure the printability of their design. Ensuring printability allows them to have their materials produced at the soonest time possible, and make the most out of the printing services.
There are three elements that directly affect the printability of a design:
Typography. Proper typography not just ensures readability, but also plays a part in capturing the attention of readers. Readability results from the dynamic interaction of typefaces, size, text alignment, tracking, and other text properties. It’s also always a good idea to keep things simple by avoiding clutter in order to best convey your message.
Color scheme. One of the basic rules of color selection for printed materials is to choose the company colors to provide familiarity to their readers. Another option is to choose colors according to the mood you wish to convey. For example, red is an excellent choice for expressing passion and energy. Regardless of color scheme you have chosen, it is important that colors will blend well together and not strain the eyes once printed.
Layout. The layout will depend on your intended final output. What can be laid out in a flyer may turn out differently when printed on a poster. This is why it’s always best to have a specific layout for each type of printed material. Companies working with online printing services also need to include specifications regarding trim marks, trimmed page size, bleed, and margins to make sure the print comes out as they intended.
Some printers offer the services of professional designers to make sure all the bases are covered. Enlisting a printing company that also offers design services can help companies accurately and quickly bring their visions to life.

If you have a business or you are starting a business, then you know just how important advertising is. Being able to have advertising in print is paramount in order to get the word out about your services and your pricing. Advertising is the only way that people are going to find out about your company and online print services can help do just that. Remember, the only way to keep a business alive and fresh with business is with frequent advertising campaigns.
Whether you are just beginning an advertising campaign or you are launching a series of campaigns to get the word out, online print services can offer you a wide variety of features. Online printing services can help you produce a customized printing solution that can be 100% tailored to your company and its needs. For example, the trifold brochure is a very popular way to advertise your corporation and online print services will have a wide variety of sizes and paper choices for your brochure advertising campaign to choose from. A trifold brochure features six panels that contain a single graphic piece that you can simply upload to an online print services website, and within no time you will be able to see your advertising campaign, live and in full color.
If you are looking for a unique look for your advertising campaigns then the French fold brochure may be just what you need. This particular design is very similar to a greeting card and can be an excellent way to market to your audience on their birthdays which can help with client retention. Clients always like to be remembered, and sending a French fold brochure is just a way to do it. For other aspects of your campaign you can include a Z fold brochure, which is a very simple yet powerful marketing tool or you could opt for the double parallel fold brochure, which is designed for more verbose marketing campaigns. Whether you have a brief message with a small tagline that can fit on a Z full brochure, or if you have more of a informative persuasive message for your audience where the double parallel fold brochure fits best, having your message in print about your company and what you can do for the public is vital to the survival and growth of your business.

Many small businesses have numerous needs for printing services, but the time to lay out a design for a brochure, menu, or marketing flyers for example, becomes a time consuming chore since you also have to go to a printing shop and arrange for the work to be done. Don’t forget, you’ll still need the time to go back and pick it up once complete. Out of habit or association, sometimes people just don’t think of using an online printing company.
Another problem with such tasks is that small business owners generally have to be involved in the process one way or another, because hands-on owners normally need to approve these as one-off projects. There is rarely a template or standard framework in a local sized business from which to work, so errors can find their way into printing jobs without proper supervision.
The best way to cut down on the time involved in printing projects is to use an online printing company. You basically do everything you would the same with an over-the-counter service, except you are using your web browser to design your layout, choose stock, upload your logo and add textual content. Whatever a brick and mortar printer can do, an online printing company can do as well. PGPrint.com is a large commercial printing company and as a result, has the latest equipment and technology in the printing industry. In fact, a lot of local printers use online services when their equipment is insufficient. This is also the reason that PGPrint will be able to give you the best printing deal possible.
Does it take longer to use an online printing company?
Let’s compare. You or your staff do a mock-up on your computer using something like Microsoft word. That’s fine too, except that it goes back and forth between a couple people and then back to you for approval. HmmmÖ can anybody count a half day of work gone? Somebody then has to go to the printer, which will be at least an hour – if everything is done right and the proper file formats are brought to the store. The “printer” is actually a part time student who takes your file and says “okay, that will cost this much and should be ready by tomorrow”. Fine then.
The next day the order is ready, but nobody from your office remembers to go pick it up. That was a Friday. On Monday somebody takes an hour away from the office to go pick up the order. Back in the office everyone thinks it looks fine, save for a couple minor spelling errors.
Here is how it works at our online printing company, PGprint.com
1. From your office desk, you choose what kind of printing task you want to order and navigate to the design software. You can upload a PDF, word or image file you’ve already designed, or use one of our convenient templates and start designing the brochure within our software.
2. When you’ve got something ready you call the boss over to have a look. “Looks great” she says, “but maybe we can make the the word SALE look a little bigger”. You adjust it, and then you simply proof the document online.
3. Now you choose the paper stock and how many brochures you want. Enter credit card and delivery information. Done.
Your order is sent out the next day right from our online printing company distribution center, and nobody has to leave your office to go pick it up. No lost time on the road, no mistakes, and the print is delivered to your door faster than a local printer would have gotten it there. Also, if you do have any difficulties with your design or some other features of our software, just give us a call and we’ll help you through it. No travel necessary.

If you have ever tried to work with a local printing service and not only get your printing needs taken care of at a reasonable price, but in a decent time frame, you know just how hard this can be. Their prices are often far too expensive for the budget you have established and they take forever. This is not something you are likely to find with online printing services.
Instead what you are likely to find is that when you use online printing services such as PGprint, you will get professional quality printing that is far more affordable than even the most basic services locally . More importantly, even when you have to factor in shipping times your order is going to be sitting in your office before that local printer has a chance to get started.

There are several benefits to using an online printing service starting with cost. Most of us have gone to the local printer to have work done, only to find out that their prices can be prohibitively expensive. In par this is due to their high overhead and in part due to the fact that as they are conveniently located, they know they can get away with it. They think that when you need business materials printed you are going to pay the price.
When you use an online printing service, you will be dealing with a much larger company that while they may have large overheads, can more than cover them with the volume of work that they do. It is a fact that you will find the majority of online printers have prices that are significantly lower than you will find at any printer in your local area.

When you step into a bricks and mortar print shop you can show them exactly what you have in mind and then see the results as a sample before you give the go ahead for final printing. Most people do not think that you can do the same thing when you are dealing with online printing services and they would be wrong.
When you are dealing with online printing services you create your template right on their website or submit a template of your own. You can contact and speak directly to their design department and tell them what you have in mind so that they can create it and send you a sample to approve before final printing is authorized. Best of all they do all of this for far less than you would expect to pay for the same level of service in a regular print shop.
