TIPS FOR SAVING ON PRODUCTION COSTS

A few simple steps can cut down on your cost for layout and design:

 

  • It is always helpful to know what the customer wants before we start. If Print Services will be designing your project, a rough sketch, outline or basic idea will help us complete the job on time.
  • Gather together all of the materials you would like included in your job before sending ti to Print Services. Any delays in receiving parts that need typesetting will delay the entire job.
  • If you have information to be used in your project stored on your computer, it may help to send the information on disk to Print Services allong with the job. Your typed word processing files can be used to eliminate the time it would take to retype the information.
  • File formatssupported by Print Services include:
  • MACINTOSH- Adobe Acrobat, Pagemaker, Photoshop and Illustrator; Microsoft Excel, Powerpoint and Word; Quark XPress.
  • PC- Adobe Acrobat and Pagemaker; Microsoft Excel, Powerpoint, Publisher and Word; Corel Presentations, Quatro and Word Prefect.
  • Call the District's Desktop Publishing Specalist to check the compatability of other file formats.
