Do you provide a document checking service?
Yes, we offer a free manual document-checking service to ensure your files are print-ready. Our team will review the document layout, bleed, resolution, and other technical details, allowing you to correct any issues before production begins.
What file formats are needed for printing?
Please provide high-resolution pdf files (300 dpi) in CMYK color mode with 3-mm bleed.
For detailed coffee table book printing, we recommend high-quality images to ensure vibrant color and clarity in the final product.
Can I see a sample before full production?
Yes, we provide both digital and physical proofs. Digital proofs help you review the layout on screen, while physical proofs allow you to check the material, color, and finish before mass printing. Visit our Proof Support Page or contact our team for help.
Do you provide design templates for photo books?
Yes. We offer ready-made photo book templates for common sizes, so you can lay out your images correctly with the right bleed and margins before you submit your files. If you’d prefer, send us your specs and our team will point you to the right template.
Why do my printed photos look different from my screen?
Screens display color in RGB while presses print in CMYK, so some shift is normal. We run GMG color proofing on every job to keep reproduction accurate, and we can supply hard proofs and offset samples on request, as an optional paid service, so you can confirm color before the full run.
Can you print black-and-white photo books well?
Yes. Black-and-white photography needs careful tonal control to avoid muddy greys or flat blacks. We print on gloss or matte art paper with calibrated presses to hold the full tonal range, from deep blacks to clean highlights, so your monochrome work reproduces faithfully.
