offset all the way

I've just completed a few different design + print jobs and it's be fun working on these projects [pictures to be posted later]. The only issue I will have to make sure stands going forward is using offset printing, only. Due to various factors, mainly budget + small quantities, a few clients have opted for digital print. Which is fine if they want to go that way, and are happy with the finished product, but in all honesty it just doesn't look as good. From now on I will only be providing offset printing with soy ink + recycled paper. This is important for my business + keeping true to the mission to be earth friendly while using sustainable materials where possible.

On the topic of printing, I've had an issue with a printer of not providing a colour proof before the final print run! This is really frustrating as the final product on both occasions had problems which could have been easily rectified if a proof was given + checked. What a waste of material + time... note for the future, make sure you get a proof!
