Information for publishers


Preparation of operations

On condition of proper publisher materials preparation as carbon papers, electronic data, films, we begin the process of order's realisation.

It is unacceptable to join electronically prepared materials with ones prepared in the form of transparency.

When there is illustration on fall , every illustration should be bigger from net format at least 3 mm from every side.

Transparencies prepared for glued binding should have fall of 3 mm ridge onto shear fraise.

Because of machine gluing at the ridge, the minimal distance from text's ridge and essential graphic elements should be 6mm.

Important text and graphic elements should be placed at distance at least of 5 mm net from cutting line.

You should not insert one small degree print line on adjacent columns.

It is unacceptable to carry over some mm of an illustration on adjacent page.

60 % cyanic acid screen should be applied under the area of black application.

It is unacceptable to generate the text and black black application from four colors. When printing on papers of low weight, you should avoid printing large areas with more than one colour.

When applying little degree writing , under 8 points or other graphic elements, you should avoid discrepancy(mainly of sherif type faces).

For the purpose of avoiding potential imperfections in registering, the minimal putting of colours on themselves should be applied.

Thin graphic elements as e.g. lines should be made in one colour.
It applies to letters of small and medium degree of writing.


In case of texts in discrepancy on black application on black application, the pick should be enlarged.
In case of multi-coloured text, the prevailing colour should be picked for the required size of made element. As to other colours, the pick should be larger.


Black texts in coloured background should be printed and the background should not be removed in such cases.

In cases of glued binding it is of consideration that the second and third page of cover and the first and last page of intake will be 6 mm glued from the ridge along side gluing, so these columns should be 6mm narrower in comparison to others.

Electronically prepared materials must meet other requirements >> Technical specification prepared for CTP files system <<

Ridges

In case of glued binding book ridges are defined currently by the preparation production department, but only in case 'classic offset papers' e.g. Amber Graphic and according to technological standards.
In case of cream, white pigment coated and volume papers the dummy of book is required for the purpose of book's ridge defining as with hard and thread binding .
In such cases the information about ridge width can be given later on, after preparation of the dummy.

Binding services

Besides net format, run and type of binding, the following data should be given for the purpose of cost calculation and time of realisation:
 -what kind of material will be delivered, whether fly, sheet, tablet
 -of what format was the printing(machine format) in case of sheet and how it    should be folded( number of folds)
 -number of flies in operation
 -what kind of service and materials is ŁDD Printery to supply and what    materials is to supply the client.
 -time of intermediates delivery.

It is unacceptable to send tablets for binding without glued end papers.

Because of machine production system ,it is unacceptable to send flies for further binding process e.g. fly to fly thread sewing system.

Before sending assignments ,the dummy of final product should be delivered.

Gilding of tablet book sides

For the purpose of proper work preparing, it should be assumed that machine for gilding, grinds every side of book separately and for three times and by taking from 0,5 to 1,5 mm according to kind of material

It is unacceptable to send cylindrical tablets of net format-without gross, mentioned above with such a finish as tape or headband.
For the purpose of correct pricing besides the required run and format, the estimated ridge's thickness should be declared.

The ŁDD Printery reserves for itself the right not to accept any kind of binding service.
