Color Overview
FULL COLOR

Also known as 4-color printing due to the simple fact that an image is separated into 4 layers of film in order to print. Each film representing one of the four components (colors) known as CMYK and when meshed together magically appears as a full color picture. This is simulated by the moving apple to your right. This process is used for most full color printing such as brochures or magazines, where pictures and/or illustrations are an important part of relaying your message!

SPOT COLOR

PANTONE ® colors also known as PMS colors is the most commonly used spot color system throughout the world. You can choose from thousands of spot colors, they are commonly used for flyers, business cards etc, where the graphics don't call for a full color separation.

WEB COLOR
Colors on the World Wide Web are tricky business. Imagine standing in the local electronics store looking at the many TV's on display. You'll notice that every TV displays colors differently! The same is true for nearly every monitor in use today. After all, what is a TV but a monitor! These differences make colors on the web a hit and miss proposition. What looks like a deep green on one monitor might appear as a light green on another. A minor drawback considering the overhead of printed collateral. A web page is a great cost effective way of reaching potential customers world wide!
