Do you do printing?

Do you do illustrations?
Our packages and prices do not include illustration designs. Please contact us to get our quotes on illustrations.

Why does the color look different when I print it?
Your personal printer doesn’t use exact colors that you see on the screen. You have to calibrate your printer with the screen first for the best match.

Why does the color change on different monitors when I view the samples?
The color you see on the screen depends a lot on the adjustments of the screen settings and color setup. It also depends on the brand and model of the monitor. Two identical monitors brand and model with the same settings will have slight color variation and intensity. There is no way to create a file that will show the same color on all the screens. Furthermore, when you print the file the color will change. (Refer to Why does the color look different when I print it? )

Logo Kit and Files

What is a Word Template?
Word Template is a Microsoft Word file. We only provide letterhead design for the word template.
It contains almost exact replica of your original letterhead design, with an option to type in the body of the document and leaving all the graphical elements untouched. If you have Microsoft Word you can print this document on your local printer directly from your computer. However there are some limitations in quality and positioning.

What are the limitations of the word template?
Word template does not allow to embed a high quality vector graphic or a higher resolution bitmap file. Therefore the previewing and printing quality is not as high as the original vector files.
There is no option to implement bleeding in the word template document.
Some white space margins may be visible on your document. The size of the margins is determined by the program and the printer set up.

Will you provide me with scalable vector files?
Yes, we provide you with scalable vector files (AI, EPS, PDF).

What is a scalable vector file?
Vector files are files that you can resize, scale, and even change colors or fonts without loosing any quality or resolution on your image. It’s best to make GIFs or any other bitmap formats you may need for your web site. Vector files are mostly used by professional designers or print shops.

What is bitmap file?
Bitmap files are a more popular file that are the best to use on the Web. You may use them on most word applications, they are small in size, but hard to modify because of their poor resolution. You may notice a big distortion in your image if you try to scale a bitmap file. The most popular bitmap files are GIF, JPEG, TIFF and BMP.

How can I use vector files?
Vector files are used on specific vector based software applications such as Adobe Illustrator and Corel Draw.

Stationary Design

When I view my stationery on the web site it seems to have different colors from my original logo design?
For best viewing purposes, we use RGB color mode to present the logo samples to you. It is the main standard for all computer oriented graphics, web included. However, when we work on stationery designs, we have no choice but to convert your logo to either CMYK or Pantone colors (according to your preference). Printers do not work in RGB mode. Slight color shifts may occur. Pantone colors may appear even more different on screen b
