Pre-Media Click to view portfolio
How does Primary Color consistently produce “best in class” printed material for our clients? This is our core service and the foundation of good print reproduction. We like to emphasize the importance of pre-media and our intelligence in this area and recognize this as a differentiator from other printers. The basis of good printing starts with good files, color management, how ink prints on substrates and an artistic eye to know what makes a good image. The printed material is the culmination of all the up front intelligence. Our creative skillset ensures we manage color to maximize the visual impact across all printed media. Our precise production of printing files takes full advantage of all printing techniques, presses and devices. And it all takes place around the clock, at Primary Color’s two world-class pre-media facilities.
