To create the highest quality edition possible, your original artwork has to be transferred to a digital file. While we can work from supplied transparencies and digital files, we have found that allowing us to make the transparency or digital image direct from your original art will nearly always provide superior results as we have perfected an in-house system of image quality control. The digital file format we use gives us the versatility to manipulate an image prior to hardcopy production. Lines, textures, colours and contrast can be altered, enriched or eliminated. All files will be archived for future prints.

If you supply transparencies please have them professionally produced. You should use a commercial photographer who is used to the technical accuracy required for superior reproduction. A grey card, at the very least, must be included in the shot - preferably a step wedge and colour bar as well. The minimum size of transparency is 645 format, anything bigger is better (we use 6x8cm and 5"x4").
