This product offers over 20 paper stocks organized into four categories:

• Uncoated text-weight papers (20#, 24#, 28#, 32# bond) — natural feel, easy to write on. Great for forms, handouts, manuals, and anything that gets handled frequently.
• Coated text-weight papers (80# and 100# in gloss or silk) — smooth surface that makes colors vivid and photos crisp. Best for brochures, catalogs, and image-heavy materials.
• Cover stock (80# cover, 100# cover, 14pt board, 16pt board) — rigid card stock for postcards, book covers, dividers, and display materials.
• Linen papers (24# text and 100# cover, in solar white or natural white) — textured paper with a woven feel, ideal for formal invitations, letterhead, and certificates.
• Colored papers — pastel shades (20# and 24#) and bright/neon colors (24#). Economical way to add a bold background without using ink.

In printing, a "page" means one side of a sheet of paper. If you print on both sides of a sheet, that's 2 pages on 1 sheet.

• Single-sided (1-sided): Each sheet has printing on the front only. 10 pages = 10 sheets.
• Double-sided (2-sided): Each sheet has printing on both front and back. 10 pages = 5 sheets.

Our calculator includes a built-in verification tool: as you configure your order, it shows you exactly how many sheets of paper will be used and how many printed sides your job contains. Use this to confirm your order matches what you expect before checkout. If the numbers don't look right, adjust your page count or sides setting.

Our equipment — including the Revoria Press EC1100 by Fujifilm — produces vivid, professional-quality color, especially on coated papers where the coating prevents ink absorption.

Three factors affect how colors look on the final print:

• Paper type: Coated gloss and silk produce the most vibrant colors. Uncoated papers absorb more ink and appear softer. Colored paper shifts all printed colors (blue ink on goldenrod leans green).
• Screen vs. print: Monitors use RGB light; printers use CMYK toner. Some colors — bright neons, certain blues — can't be exactly reproduced in print. A universal printing limitation, not specific to our equipment.
• File prep: For the most accurate color, submit CMYK files at 300 DPI. RGB files convert automatically, but conversion can shift some colors.

Best results: coated paper + high-resolution PDF in CMYK.

No — and this is true for all commercial printing, not just ours. Here's why:

Computer monitors, phone screens, and home/office printers all display color differently. Monitors use backlit RGB light, while commercial printers use CMYK toner or ink applied to paper. These are fundamentally different color systems, so an exact match between screen and print is not physically possible.

What we do guarantee is consistency within your order — all copies in your run will look the same. We keep our equipment professionally calibrated and maintained to produce stable, reliable output.

However, we want to be upfront: we do not provide color-matching guarantees. Colors may vary slightly between different print runs, and between digital and offset production methods. If your project requires precise color matching (such as matching a specific Pantone color or a previous print run), please contact us before ordering so we can discuss options.

Everything happens through the calculator on this page:

1. Configure your order — select paper stock, quantity, single or double-sided, and any finishing options. Your price updates instantly as you change options.
2. See your delivery estimate — enter your ZIP code and the calculator shows your estimated production time, shipping time, and in-hand date.
3. Upload your files — attach your print-ready PDF or design file. You can also use our free online designer to create your artwork from scratch or from a template.
4. Check out and pay — no account is required to get pricing, but creating a free account gives you access to order history, saved designs, and reorder tools.

Our pricing rewards volume — the more copies you order, the lower your per-copy cost. The calculator makes this transparent so you can find the right balance of quantity and budget for your project.

We cannot guarantee an exact color match between separate print runs. Here's why:

• Different production dates may mean different equipment calibration states, humidity levels, or toner batches.
• Your reorder may be printed on a digital press while the original was offset (or vice versa), depending on the most efficient method for the quantity ordered.
• Paper stocks from different manufacturing batches can have subtle variations in whiteness or coating thickness.

We keep our equipment professionally calibrated, and the results will be consistent and professional. But if you're placing two orders that will be displayed side-by-side (for example, a second batch of brochures to sit next to the first batch on a rack), we recommend ordering the full quantity in a single run.

PDF is strongly preferred — it preserves fonts, layout, images, and colors exactly as designed. Settings for best results:

• CMYK color mode (not RGB)
• Images at 300 DPI or higher
• All fonts embedded
• 0.125" bleed if your design goes to the edge — Full Bleed Printing Guide

Other formats by software:

• JPEG, TIFF, PNG: ✓ accepted at 300+ DPI for print quality.
• Adobe InDesign / Illustrator: ✓ native files accepted.
• Microsoft Word: ⚠ accepted, but Word doesn't embed formatting — fonts may shift, spacing may change, elements may move when opened on our systems. Export to PDF first whenever possible.
• Microsoft PowerPoint: ⚠ same caveats as Word. Export to PDF for reliable results.
• Canva: ✓ now produces good print-ready files. Export as "PDF Print" with crop marks and bleed enabled. Check that text isn't cut off at edges and images aren't pixelated.

Yes — we can scan a physical original on our production equipment (sometimes called "scanning from the glass"). A few things to know:

• Not a walk-in service. Your job is queued in our production schedule — not finished while you wait.
• Scanning surcharge applies. Amount depends on size, condition, color correction, and prep needed for a clean scan.
• Quality depends on the original. A crisp, clean original scans better than a faded or creased one.

Call 1-877-421-0668 before ordering — we'll review your original, estimate the scanning cost, and tell you what to expect.

You reach our actual production team — not a call center — so the person helping you understands printing and can give specific, practical advice.

• Phone: 1-877-421-0668 (Eastern time, business hours)
• Email: contact form on our website
• File review on every order: if we spot an issue — resolution, bleed, fonts — we'll contact you before printing.

We help with paper selection, file setup, rush orders, finishing choices, and design troubleshooting. Hablamos español.

Both. You can pick up at our production facility in Oakland Park, Florida (near Fort Lauderdale) — just call ahead to confirm your order is ready. We also ship nationwide via FedEx, UPS, and USPS, with ground delivery typically taking 1–6 business days. Expedited options are available at checkout. The calculator shows estimated arrival dates based on your ZIP code, or call 1-877-421-0668 to confirm before ordering.

Bleed means colors or images extend to the very edge of the paper with no white border. We print on an oversized sheet and trim to final size. Your file needs an extra ⅛" of image beyond the trim line on all sides, plus crop marks so our equipment knows where

Digital printing produces copies directly from your PDF — no plates needed. It's faster, has no setup fee, and is the most economical choice for runs up to about 2,500 copies. This is the technology used when you order through the calculator on this page.

Offset printing uses custom plates and is more cost-effective for larger runs (typically 3,000+ copies). The per-unit cost is lower at high volume, but setup takes longer and requires a larger minimum to be worthwhile.

Quick rule of thumb: Under 2,500 copies? Digital (this page). Over 3,000 identical copies? Call us at 1-877-421-0668 and we'll compare both options for your job.

Double-sided color printing — also called duplex or two-sided — prints on both sides of the sheet.

Why double-sided is usually the smarter choice:

• Half the sheets. A 100-page document prints on 50 sheets double-sided versus 100 sheets single-sided.
• Half the weight. Lighter to carry, lighter to ship — meaningful for handouts, training manuals, and bulk mailings where shipping costs scale with weight.
• Lower paper cost. Those extra sheets in single-sided printing aren't free — the paper itself is a meaningful part of every print job's price.
• Slightly slower per sheet. Double-sided requires an extra pass through the press, which adds a small amount to the per-sheet cost — but the paper savings almost always more than offset it.

One thing to watch: on very thin papers or with heavy ink coverage, you can sometimes see ink show-through from the back side. If your file and stock combination might cause this, we'll flag it before printing — or call us at 1-877-421-0668 if you're not sure which paper to choose.
