Offset Printing

At Graphic Communications, our Heidelberg presses consistently produce extremely accurate, sharp, and high quality images and type. Full and two-color newsletters, booklets, letterhead, business cards, training materials, invitations, forms, and envelopes can be quickly produced. Reprinting is simple. We save your electronic file, films and, most often, plates. With offset printing, the more you order, the less you pay per piece. Offset printing is best for large quantities

Digital Printing

 Digital printing is speedy. Turn-around times are as little as 3-5 working days and sometimes quicker if the schedule allows. Our digital press can print on just about any type of stock at sizes up to 13 x 19 inches. From glossy cover stock to uncoated labels, we can produce a 12.875 x 18.875 inch image that meets stringent printing standards. Our digital press has variable-data features that allows you to create unique, personalized printed pieces that are merged seamlessly with your mailing list. Digital printing is best for smaller quantities of full color brochures, posters, business cards, mailers and NCR forms. 

Gicleé Fine Art Prints

Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”), is the process of making archival-quality, fine art prints from a digital source using ink-jet printing. We can provide museum-quality Giclée prints for artists and photographers. Giclée prints are incredibly accurate and vibrant reproductions of original images, whether photographic, digital or other media. Once we digitize your art or photo, our high-tech printer reproduces an almost identical image on flat canvas fabric, fine art paper, watercolor paper or photographic paper, ready for you to stretch on a frame. Once we’ve archived the image digitally, you can call anytime to order one or more prints. Giclée prints are perfect for resale, limited editions, and gifts. If you haven’t seen a Giclée print, stop by to see samples, show off your work and get a quote.

Imagesetting

With digital files, Graphic Communications can produce film 30” by 44” (emulsion up or down). We can also produce 24” or 44” wide by 100-foot long posters and/or large format display images.

Today’s imagesetting devicestransfer electronic text and graphics directly to film or plates. The resolution on a typical imagesetter is 2540 dpi (dots per inch), compared to a home printer, which is either 300 or 600 dpi.

We’re adept at image scanning, color correction and photo retouching. Changes or corrections to your “InDesign” files may be made quickly and easily to keep your job on schedule.

Bindery

At Graphic Communications, we can fold, perforate, cut, and/or score your printed materials. We can keep your documents, sales materials or auction catalogue together using comb or spiral binding, saddle stitching, stapling or perfect binding. We can also number (with or without letters) your forms, estimates, invoices and tickets. All right here, on site. We’re small but mighty.
