Double-sided colour print (4/4)
Optional also 1/1 or 5/5 colour printing or a spot colour available
in portrait or landscape orientation
Possible additional options:
Control copy: Non-colour-binding printout for visual inspection of justification (sequence of pages), positioning and aspect of pages
The control copy will be shipped to the specified invoice address.
Colour proof front page: True-colour-proof digital print of the title page in accordance with ISO 12647-2
The colour proof will be shipped to the specified invoice address.
To make it as easy as possible for you and to avoid errors, we perform the imposition (arrangement of the pages on the sheet) for you.
Therefore, the individual pages of the contents (3, 4, 5…) must be created in sequence and may not be imposed in advance (e.g. 150/3, 4/149, etc. is incorrect). You can deliver the individual pages either all together in one PDF file or each page as an individual PDF, whichever is easier for you.
The important thing is: individual pages, no double pages! It should be noted here that almost all layout programs offer the option of a double-page display for layout. However, the pages in such programs are only displayed as double pages and are still single pages after export. You can of course use this option.

Here you can download the template for your product. With the information in the template you can customise your printing file correctly. Please do not scale the size of graphics because the sizes are binding. You can use the inscribed measurement for check-up.
