Graphics / Prepress
PGT offers a full range of prepress capabilities, from initial design and layout to finished product. With our electronic prepress system we are able to provide high quality, service, and quick turnaround.
Customer's digital data created in various operating systems are delivered with a hardcopy or over internet to be processed in the Graphic & Design Department for preparation in either flexo or rotogravure printing processes.
According to the requirements of the customers, designs are developed or modified using software such as Art-Pro, Freehand, Illustrator and Photoshop format. Before engraving cylinders or making flexo plates, proofs are calibrated on Best Color ICM software and send to our customers for a final design approval.
Following the design approval, pre-press preparation work continues within the facility that produces rotogravure printing cylinders, flexographic photopolymer plates.

How to Supply Files
PGT is able to receive artwork via email, CD, DVD or ftp upload/download. It is recommended that large files be compressed for emailing.
PGT suggests that art files be vector based & created in an application such as Adobe Illustrator. This type of file is better suited for artwork creation & prepress production.
All artwork submitted is subject to a preflight inspection process to determine if the art is suitable for printing and to identify any potential printing issues. Art formats not supported may also require additional time to convert to a useable format.
