Learning Curves
We provide training days at Cousin to show new customers how we work.
Training days include an introduction to the principles and processes
of print, how artwork is prepared and an explanation of how colour curves
and proof calibration work at pre-press.
Our existing customers find this service useful for their new recruits - we
show them the ropes so they don't have to.
Such An Imposition
We supply imposition guides in Mac or PC format, so customers can drop
thumbnails of the pages into place as they print.
The service gives our clients the chance to see their job come together as
it happens - and spot any problems before proofing.
Weight of Expectation
When our customers told us counting the cost of post and distribution
was a chore, we developed a user-friendly tool for them to calculate
the mailing weight of each printed item.
Our Excel spreadsheet can also adjust the paper weight to suit postal
bands so you can choose the right paper for your budget.
Make a Statement
We can prepare a concise, consumer-friendly environmental statement
for you to print with your product approved by the mill or paper merchant.
With tighter legislation now in place for forestry, pulp processing
and paper production, some clients like to let their customers know they
are greener than they think.
Amazing Insight
Our partners at Mohn Media have an online asset management system called
Insight which speeds up content approval, sign-off timings and image
distribution for big projects.
Insight allows changes and comments to be made on screen by a number
of users in different locations with password access. Comments and instructions
can be tracked, reviewed and approved page by page.
The user-friendly software can be installed on any computer in minutes,
anywhere in the world. Image files can be grouped in many formats such
as jpeg, tiff, lay or web, and downloaded by users with layered access
rights.
