Quality and Production
Good print quality comes down to the right file, suitable materials and controlled production. Digital printing technology also allows for more accurate colour reproduction than many expect.
Steps in short
- Prepare your file at the correct size.
- Choose the material based on how the product will be used.
- Check the PDF and the important details.
- Let us know if the schedule or use case is unusual.
The file sets the starting point
Printing can't turn a blurry image sharp or a faulty file correct. That's why it's worth checking the PDF before production.
Colour and accuracy in digital printing
aDigi's digital presses support a wider colour gamut than traditional CMYK printing, so files supplied in RGB often reproduce more accurately than a file converted to CMYK. Paper, board and finishing also affect the result – the same colour can look different depending on the surface.
Checking reduces errors
A technical check of the file helps catch problems before printing, but checking that the content itself is correct – such as names and prices – is the customer's responsibility.
Frequently asked questions
Is the file checked before printing?
The file can be checked technically before production. Checking that the content is correct, such as names and prices, is the customer's responsibility.
What usually causes printing errors?
Common causes include the wrong size, missing bleed, blurry images or a faulty original file.
Can the material affect the colour?
Yes. The surface and tone of the paper affect how a colour looks in the finished product.
Does the file need to be in CMYK?
Not necessarily. aDigi's digital presses support a wider colour gamut than traditional CMYK, so RGB files often work just as well or better.
