The team in Mississauga is great! Just one error in your article, the Streetsville Bread and Honey Festival is the first weekend in June each year. Not in the Fall.

Hi there! I saw your booth at the show and was very impressed your the quality of your printed products and the 3D printing was too cool! I'm wondering if you offer a service where you print on card stock that a customer already has. I'm looking to print my wedding invitations on specific cardstock and my printer at home doesn't print on 80lb/120gsm paper.

Re: 3 things we learned about business from tree planting

Yeah. I also enjoy the process of planting trees. And yes, although we can’t see the result of the planting right away, somehow it just make me feel good to give something back to the environment.

Re: Five huge mistakes businesses make with their posters

Ohh!... PROOFREAD! Print out a few smaller copies and have a few people look at it before it gets signed off. It will prevent large mistakes.

Re: Five huge mistakes businesses make with their posters

Frank Rho — Wed, 28 Aug 2013 22:14:53 -0000

Good to know.
A couple of my customers used low res images which never looks good. It sure is hard to tell what a poster is going to look like on a 22" screen. Whatever program you are using, view the poster at 100% and scroll all over to make sure images and fonts are clear.
For bannerstands, make sure you get the correct size to work with. Not all stands are the same.
If you need advice or need some kind of solution, we can help.

Changing the Color mode of a picture (RGB) to CMYK can also be done in CorelDraw - that is if one is designing using CorelDraw. I use CorelDraw, and I like it.

Re: Four reasons why business cards are absolutely necessary

We always review our new client's marketing collateral and scrutinize the business card! It is the most underappreciated business identification piece and be an extension of your sales force when properly designed.

Plus, in this digital and social networked world we live (and work) in it can be a terrific driver to a dedicated landing page or social networking page, thus increasing website traffic.
