A Nifty Tool to Make Your Working Life Easier

   Have you visited the Copresco website recently? We have made significant changes to provide easier access and navigation for our customers and other site visitors.
   “The website is one of our most important customer and employee communications tools,” says Copresco president Steve Johnson.
   “As a high-tech company, our goal was to create a website that provides a wealth of information and resources.”
   The site, which is hosted and maintained by Copresco, has been continuously upgraded and improved since it was established in 1996.
   Here’s what our enhanced website offers you:

Digital Files Transfer

   Our internet files transfer system offers the simplicity of e-mail and the reliability of FTP transmission.
   Just go to the website, click on Send Us A Job and follow the simple on-screen instructions.
   You’ll get an e-mail confirmation and tracking number after your files have been uploaded.

Useful Information

   You’ll find a bevy of information on Copresco’s services and digital printing technology along with links for package tracking and search engines. You can even take a test for color blindness.

Fact-Filled Publications

   Our publications page contains copies of TechTopics, our technical bulletin series, and our monthly newsletter, Overnight Lite, in PDF and text formats.
   Links are also provided for Copresco press releases that answer digital printing questions, Steve Johnson’s American Printer columns on digital technology and the graphic arts and feature articles from other respected trade publications.

Fast Communication

   E-mail links offer fast, convenient communication with our production department for your digital printing estimates and specifications or to check the status of your work that is in progress.

Helpful Links

   Our links area provides quick access to major companies in the printing and publishing business as well as access to software upgrades and patches, virus protection and printer drivers.
   So, when you need books and manuals, call the company that has the technical know-how and skills to make your job easier and more productive. Call Copresco.
   And, visit our website soon.


Three More APEX Awards

   Copresco picked up three more website-related Awards of Excellence from Communications Concepts.
   The site was recognized in multiple APEX 2005 web categories for its ease of use, communications effectiveness and practical, user-friendly content and tools.
   This is the seventh consecutive year that the website has won these coveted awards.
   Copresco also received an Award of Excellence for a new website created for a client. “These awards positively validate Copresco’s efforts to give our customers the valuable tools they need to stay competitive in the ever-changing world of digital technology and printing on-demand,” says president Steve Johnson.


New Color Processing Guide

   In the past (see March 2005 Overnight Lite), we have previously discussed changes that the Pantone company had made to its color matching formulas and how these changes impacted the accuracy of color reproduction.

Subtle Color Changes

   Now there is an updated printing of the Pantone Solid-to-Process guide. Changes in both the printing process used to create the guide and the use of a whiter paper mean that many colors may appear subtly different to two people using different versions of the Pantone guide.
   To add to the confusion, this color- matching swatchbook has been renamed the Pantone Color Bridge.

Worth the Price

   If you’re currently using the Pantone Solid-to-Process guide to get a realistic idea of how various PMS colors will print using the four-color digital printing process, we suggest that you purchase the new guide. But, don't yet discard your old version.
   If you’re not familiar with this guide, we strongly suggest that you get a copy if you ever have anything printed in color. The hundred bucks will save you many headaches.
   Perhaps we should explain the intricacies of color matching, but that is fodder for another issue!


Labor Day

   Copresco will be closed Monday, September 5 for Labor Day.
   Enjoy the last weekend of summer.
