How to prepare a PDF for printing?
Proper preparation of documents for printing in PDF format is very important for the production process.
An incorrectly prepared document may at best result in delivery delays or, in the worst-case scenario, incorrectly printed documents. These delivery delays occur because incorrectly formatted PDF documents must be corrected, which normally requires communication between the printery and the customer (concerning the fact that the customer now has to wait for a new/correct PDF document to be delivered).
This is why we have prepared here a document including detailed instructions on how to properly format a PDF document.

Impact of the packaging and printing industries on climate change and benefits of using recycled paper
The printing industry is a major economic sector, which requires ongoing changes and adjustments to the market due to a large number of participants.
Its environmental impact is mostly due to the waste resulting from production processes, and is being reduced thanks to automation and more precise machines. In addition, machines using new technologies also have lower harmful impacts of CO2 emissions.
Using recycled paper for packaging helps:
- preserve forests;
- reduce water pollution;
- save energy and natural resources;
- reduce construction site waste.
Adverse environmental impacts are reduced by investing in new, modern machines and equipment.
The technology used in these new machines and equipment is very environmentally friendly, does not use any harmful substances, and minimizes waste. These machines allow high-quality production over a very short period of time, which also results in electricity savings.
These machines are designed to generate less noise, consume less energy and use environmentally friendly paints and other input materials. Such new machines also reduce the amount of wastepaper because they are less likely to produce nonconforming or mackled print, as well as paper jams.
As these machines are digital, no water needs to be used for their washing.
