A fixed price-per-page rate solution for independent publishers of all sizes is here. Your hunt to find magazine design and production specialists is over.

Magazines – a powerful advertising tool

Our forté is offering a comprehensive magazine design, layout and production solution for the independent publisher. Our cost-effective service provides you with an all-inclusive price before work commences.

We pioneered the ‘fixed price-per-page’ pricing solution*. This shows how confident we are in our services to be able to do this but it also means you can budget ahead with confidence.

Many publishers today aren’t able to justify costs associated with employing full-time designers, design agencies, printing houses or freelancers.

Today’s broadband and PDF technologies allow projects to be completed with ease, at your convenience, without needing to operate under one roof. In fact we have created magazines, with quick turn round times, for publishers in the US, Europe and, of course, here in the UK. It is as if we are working from an office next door.

We will take into account all of the work necessary to get your magazine  the printing press. All you need do is to supply finalised text and images.

Our comprehensive service includes: creating and organising your flat plan; file preparation; design / page layouts; image manipulation; colour-balancing, enhancing images; overall production; creation of advertisements (subject to sight of work); assist in chasing of advertisements; creating and sending PDF proofs by e-mail; digital proofs; amendments; creating compliant PDF files for commercial printing; remotely uploading pages via IP direct into the RIP server at the printing company, back-up of all raw files; supplying the client with low & high resolution PDF files; and anything else that isn’t listed here.

Haven’t got a magazine but would like to create one?
Well we can show you how to start a magazine and publish your own title – and avoid making those basic mistakes.
