Preparing for Press

At the Garvey Group we pride ourselves in working collaboratively with our clients to develop products that will effectively achieve business goals. During the production phase, we can offer help with developing project concepts, creative services and prepare your project files to achieve optimal print results.

Proofing Technology

Our pre-press department believes in thorough color matching and correction for each and every project. To achieve these high standards we use The ORIS Digital Proofing System. The system is a complete proofing system, combining automation, color management, high-speed output and proofing-specific ink and paper. With ORIS, we can create contract quality proofs to meet any color critical output.

Our proofing options include:

Equipment Max Output
Epson Stylus PRO 11880 G7 Certified 64" x 81"
Kodak XP4 20" x 26"

Print Production Format (PPF). CIP3 is a graphic production industrycip3 organization that has developed a standard named PPF (Print Production Format) to allow integration of digital data among the pre-press, printing (press) and post-press operations. In effect, it allows all the devices in the three areas to “speak a common language” with the others. Using PPF standards improves the links between the processes and allows each device to do its job more quickly and efficiently. For our plate department technical personnel, this means more time available for them to oversee areas that require a skilled and experienced human eye; for customers, it means fast, error-free turnaround.
