Where
you are: What
Does My Printer Need to Know About My Project? When you talk to a prospective printer, be prepared to tell them the following information: 1. The name of your project. 2. The dimensions and number of pages of the project. 3. The number of colors, process or spot, for the project. 4. The quantity of finished pieces that you'll want. 5. The color, feel and weight of the paper that you want the project printed on. 6. The materials that you will be supplying to the printer (computer files or pasted-up documents). 7. When you need the project completed or delivered. Your printer will be able to offers some recommendations in terms of paper, matching colors, software acceptability, etc. You can ask if there are any ways that you can save a few dollars by altering the page size of the finished piece, using different colors, etc. To ensure that you get quotes that you can easily compare, make sure that you give each of the perspective printers the exact same specifications to bid on. This information, combined with your knowledge of
the printer, should ensure that your project looks great and is delivered
both on budget and on time. Tip: There are Graphic Design classes in your area. Sign up for FREE information from top design schools.  Some

and expensive to have a
