On DEMAND printing

Presentech offers some of the fastest
turns available for full color printing.

Many of our most popular products, including postcards, flyers, handouts and brochures are ready in as little as 48 hours from the time we receive your press ready file. Turn times are affected by a number of factors, including work needed to prepare your file for printing, a proof stage, work in house or the quantity you are ordering.

For large format printing, many orders for posters or banners, including professional mounting and laminating, are ready in just 2 days as well. To take advantage of this fast turn, please include all pages in one print file with crops and bleed. A pdf file is recommended. Sending separate files will increase the turn time needed for your order. Some larger posters may require additional time. Box for ship adds additional time. 

Submitting your file and other important limitations

Submitting File

For fastest service, please upload your files using our easy to use ordering system at http://orders.presentech.com.  When you send your files online, your order is sent directly to our prepress department. Emailing files or orders will delay your order and in some cases, an emailed file may never arrive. 

Missing graphics, fonts or formatting problems which delay our starting time will change the time we complete your order. Turn times may be affected by work in house or equipment malfunction, so always confirm service availability before placing your order.  

While extremely rare, we’ll always let you know of delays in completing your file and what we can to assist you.

File format

We suggest sending a press quality pdf file with crops and 1/8” bleeds. All pages in your document printed in a similar manner or size should be in the same pdf file - not separate files. Your pdf is your proof, so please review it carefully before submitting your file for printing.  If color is critical, please allow additional time and request a printed proof prior to printing your order. Depending on the characteristics of your order, there may be a nominal charge for a printed proof. 

If you’re printing a 2-sided (duplex) document, the odd numbered pages are the front side of each page and the even number pages are the back sides of each page. Example: pages 1 and 2 are the front and back of your first printed page.

When printing a stitched book, please send a one up page in a multiple page file – no spreads and not separate files for each page.  We suggest reader order and we will arrange for the correct printing order.  

Bindery

Some specialized bindery items, such as perfect binding and die cutting require additional time. We are happy to custom quote a fast turn time for any order or bindery request.

Shipping and Delivery

We are are pleased to ship via FedEx Ground or Priority per your request, but please request this service when placing your order so we may schedule the time needed to box and pack your materials. We offer UPS when charged to your corporate account.
