Finish options:
- Gloss: this is a coated sheet that is very common in magazine and catalog printing. This coating has the highest sheen of the three options.
- Matte/Silk/Satin these three terms are used interchangeably. This is a coated sheet that has a flat look or an exceptionally low sheen to it.
- Uncoated: this paper doesn’t have a coating on it. It has a very flat look to it and is used in printing books and coloring books or anywhere else that writability is a priority.
Proofing:
A physical proof is a hard copy of the project that is printed out and shipped to you for you to confirm color via FEDEX, we supply a return envelope, and we will begin production when we receive the approved proof back. We use this proof for color matching, and we want to ensure that we are both viewing the same piece.
A virtual proof is a PDF file that we send to you to confirm the files on the project. This is the most expeditious way to proof and approve a project.
Recommendations:
We recommend using 100# text on the text pages and 80# cover on the cover pages. If you have any questions or need samples, please call 717-664-3636 or email info@executiveprintingcorp.com
