You'll find that you'll probably be better off financially as well. I've heard that design firms pay their top people the largest salaries and spend more on making their offices "trendy" leaving little to pay the "grunt workers"

I'm not in sales, but isn't it common to say "our product is better then their product and here's why..." Isn't it all about why their product is inferior to ours? Now, outright lies are a different story, but I agree with the rest of the folks on here that say you're probably going to get more...

You may be better off converting it to an 8 page 8.5 x 11" saddle stitch and printing it on 17 x 11 paper than buying an expensive large format digital printer.

You did leave out two important pieces of info. What part of the country are you in? and Are you hiring any additional staff? LOL. Welcome to the group. We're not really all smartasses (just a good majority). You almost have to be in this business.

When updating in InDesign, do you have "show import options" checked? If so, uncheck it and try to update it.

I've always spelled it Preflight

The important question you have to ask yourself is "where is my intended audience in relation to the final printed piece?". If they're going to be right up on it, then yes, blowing up images and losing quality will be a huge issue. If they're, say, hanging on a wall and being viewed by several...

Have you tried "google shopping"? I did a google search for the "konika-minolta 6500" and got these results. Don't list by relevance, list by price highest to lowest. If you go price low to high, you'll get pieces parts and if you go by relevance, you'll most likely get parts as well. Google

Nothing good can come from this............LOL

Ajr, I hope that you didn't feel cheap AFTER you showed him your bum, but that you sent him away without dropping your trousers at all. LOL

All of the discussion on color consistency is moot anyway. Most files that are given to a printer are usually not even color corrected. Sure we run a color proof on images that are waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy too yellow. The customer o.k.'s it and then o.k.'s the job on press. Color doesn't seem to...

Try the print brokers association website. They may have their membership stats online. Might be a good place to start. PBBA Site Map

Good lord, this post is old.............

Those are some really broad categories. When you just include the term "designer", you're looking at freelancers, those who work in design agencies, in-house designers for companies and printers, not to mention personal assistants and secretaries that do design work on a regular basis. And...

If you've found them online for $80, what's preventing you from ordering them online?

Here's a question. How fast will these apps drain your battery?

I can't understand the clients point of view. To intentionally print the folders to match the cards so the whole job looks bad is crazy. Personally, I'd want a kick-ass folder to minimize the bad look of the card. It would make better marketing sense to have as much of the job look good as...

Unless you have forgotten, when Heidelberg builds presses, the right hand side of the press typically has greater control because they use parts that are engineered using magic dust from fairies and pixies and hand made by leprechauns. (and we all know that German fairies and pixies are more...

We don't use auto activation either. Regardless of that, in an ideal world, it should be irrelevant of when the fonts are activated. They should work the same way, in all instances. Call me a dreamer if you want, but I want consistency. LOL.

Apparently HutchColor let their G7 expire. Try here: IDEAlliance
