Film
We accept film, emulsion down, imposed as printers pairs or as single pages provided there is no image across the join of pages. Screen rulings of up to 240lpi are acceptable. However, since the majority of our workflow is CTP (computer-to-plate), this may prove an expensive way of supplying artwork.
