Our pre-press department uses the latest software and hardware available, to produce consistent quality within your required deadlines. We use Agfa's ApogeeX - automated workflow software. We incorporate the ISO 12647 International Colour Standard (using Mellow Colour's PrintSpec™) into this workflow to ensure that colour consistency is maintained from original supplied files through to the finished printed product on our presses.

FILE FORMATS
While TPO can accept virtually any file format you might work with, we prefer to receive print-ready hi-res PDF's. These PDFs are the safest way to ensure that what you've created is printed as you intended. Download our hi-res job options file for use with the Adobe Creative Suite. If you're not using the Adobe Creative Suite to create your designs, contact us for further information on how we can help you supply the best possible file for printing.

We can accept files created using the following software:
- Adobe InDesign
- Adobe PhotoShop
- Adobe Illustrator
- Adobe PageMaker
- QuarkXpress
- Freehand
- Microsoft Word
- Microsoft Excel
- Microsoft Powerpoint
- Microsoft Publisher
- CorelDraw
