Digital just gets better and better!

This is a brochure produced for a conference hosted by the Prince's Foundation. It is A4 format and saddle stitched. It looks and feels great and yet the run was only 200 copies!

The job was printed on an Indigo digital press by Good News Press and the print result is fantastic. It is printed on our Omnia (FSC) 4pp cover on 150gsm and 20pp text on 120gsm.

Although Omnia was not developed for digital, it has been "sapphire treated" by the printer. This treatment is often applied to more unusual papers and provides a "key" so that the inks (which are different to litho inks) work on the paper surface.
As you can see from the spread below, the result is awesome!
Design is by Valerie Kildea at The Prince's Foundation and thank you for the lovely note.
Val kindly sent me a copy of the new Typographic Circle mgazine called Circular Sixteen and even though the paper was sponsored by another paper merchant (...based in Hull, guess who?), here's some pics, as it's very nice piece of work! There are articles about Lippa Pearce, Spin, Design Project to name but a few.

Have a look at www.typocircle.co.uk and join and get your own copy!
