Preliminaries
Online Printing System is a prepress process that bridges the gap between online digital content and commercial print production. The process allows a print house, a client, or a graphic designer to create, edit, and approve computer-based online templates during the prepress phase. This process increasingly calls for a Portable Document Format (PDF) workflow environment with output provided by digital printing.
This solution will make your company run more efficiently and profitably by streamlining your business processes, maximizing your resources, and eliminating redundant operations.

The type of paper used for different purposes is expressed in weight. In the countries following the European system, it is grams per square meter (gsm or g/m2 or simply g); in the US system, it is Pound (lb/pt).
The paper used for writing/printing, i.e., brochures, letterheads, etc., is generally called paper or text stock. Anything heavier than this is considered card or cover stock, i.e., the paper used for business cards, postcards, greeting cards, etc.
Coated papers are available in two finishes – glossy (shiny and smooth) and matte (flat and lusterless). Coated glossy papers reflect light evenly, making them suitable for almost all printing jobs. Glossy papers have a good ink holdout, essential for creating sharp, bright images. Matte finishes do not reflect as much light and are suitable for writing on.
Printing
Our system supports RGB (red, green, blue) for producing digital prints. We have accurately mapped color pallets to match RGB to CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, key) to ensure proper 4-color printing.
300 dpi (dots per inch) is the resolution of most PDF file outputs.
