Program Issues
Our Quark,
Pagemaker, Word, Excel and Power Point programs are Macintosh
native. Generally, the main transfer problem in Quark, Pagemaker
and Word between Mac and PC will be a font issue, however, this
has been reduced with the OSX Mac Platform. PC Pagemaker files
seem to be more problematic going cross-platform and we may
request you send a PC Pagemaker file as a pdf. To date, we have
not experienced transfer problems from Power Point or Excel
files.
Fonts:
While we have large font libraries for our Mac's and PC, we
may occassionally need to request a font. Fonts can now
sometimes be shared between Mac's and PC's, but many type
faces carry the same name and appearance for both operating
systems. Please don't hesitate to contact us when you are setting
up your document(s) for a font comparison.
Arial
Font Issue: Some versions of the Arial font do not
transfer their symbol characters (apostrophes, quotes, astericks,
bullets, etc.). This can occur Mac to Mac or PC to
Mac, and even PC to PC. We have found that by using the Helvetica
font instead can remove this issue.
Proofs
We will
request that you fax us a proof (print-out) of an emailed document.
We can then compare to our test print and eliminate any issues
before proceeding with the job.
We will also supply you with a pdf or faxed proof of work you
have asked us to prepare before printing. We will not proceed
with your printing until the proof has been approved.
We are not responsible for printing
errors when we have not been supplied with a proof.
