ORDERING INFORMATION


SINGLE-PART FORMS
Where no copies are required, the forms are printed on bond paper in varying thicknesses. The most common are 60 grams through 100 grams.

MULTI-PART FORMS
Where copies are necessary, carbonless paper will be used. The top copy is CB (carbon back), the middle copies are CFB (carbon front and back) and the back copy is CF (carbon front.) Carbonless paper comes in white, yellow, pink, green and blue as the choice for the various parts. Sixty (60) gram is considered the standard weight for all copies but other weights are available if requested by the customer.

MARGINAL WORDS
The various parts of a form are used for different purposes. The top copy is usually for the customer. The other copies may be for Accounts, Sales, Distribution etc. If these words are placed on the respective copies, a plate must be made for each word thus increasing the cost. It will be more economical to put all the information on one line and have it printed on every copy so eliminating the need and cost for the additional plates.

COLOURS

“PMS” ( Pantone Matching System) is the most widely accepted process for colour matching. The Pantone Company has created a system by which thousands of colours are mixed from a few basic colours using specific proportions. These are assigned a number and orders are mixed accordingly. Any ink used in the process is counted as one colour. To get two colours, the printer will need a “spot colour” setup. This means one negative for each colour. The opposite of spot colour is “ four colour process” (CYMK.) This is the process by which photo quality images are made. The entire piece is made up of a combination of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black dots. In this process there are four separate inks combining to form the image.

SCREENS
A “screen” is a grid pattern of dots applied to an image to create a percentage of full ink coverage. The size of the dot is what makes the percentage higher or lower. The use of screens can make a single colour printed piece appear as if it were printed with multiple colours.


QUANTITY
The larger the quantity of an order, the cost goes down in continuous printing. This is mainly because there are more costs associated with setting up the job. There is a considerable amount of wastage in the initial set-up stage as you get the job ready to print. When combined with the other fixed costs such as ink, negatives, plates etc., the customer benefits as the cost is spread over a larger quantity.
