Most projects today are "soft-proofed" as Adobe® PDF files and, as an authorized Adobe Service Provider for nearly 20 years, North American Graphics keeps up-to-date on the latest versions of Adobe's Acrobat software for both the Mac and Windows platforms. We also provide free to our customers software to facilitate PDF generation and review.

spacerCreated by nearly every graphics program — but standardized in none — PDFs can range in quality from press-ready to press-ruining... with wildly variant colors, resolution and size. To ensure that PDFs are certified for use in the flexo & litho industries, we offer to our clients absolutely free of charge the InstantPDF software from Enfocus Labs. Deployed as plug-ins for the Adobe Creative Suite, Quark XPress and more, InstantPDF guarantees adherence to the criteria demanded by prepress and printers alike.

spacerOur premier softproofing option is the free Webway Approval System, which enables clients to view high-resolution, trapped PDFs hosted on our dedicated proofserver. Commenting & approvals are automatic and free from the drudgery of telephone messages, faxes or endless e-mails. Click here for much more information on Webway.

Optional "DOT PROOF " Available

Using Artwork Systems' Nexus™ RIP, final "plate-ready" color-separation files may be recombined in a high-resolution, 2400 dpi composite proof that shows complete SCREENING, TRAPPING and OVERPRINTS.

Since the actual 1-bit TIFFs that make the proof are the same that will eventually make the plate, these "dot proofs" are the most accurate representation possible of a project's content and screening.
