Prepress
The first step
to the perfect print result
Before the first sheet of paper is printed, everything begins with careful preparation in our prepress department. This is where we lay the foundation for the highest print quality – with state-of-the-art technology, a keen eye for detail, and years of experience.
Layout & Design – Creative, functional and print-ready
A well-thought-out design is more than just visual appeal – it guides the eye, conveys content clearly, and ensures brand recognition. Whether it’s simple business stationery, elaborately designed brochures, or elegant book covers – our team of media designers creates layouts that are both visually compelling and technically flawless for print.
Our promise
Error-free print data is crucial for an optimal end result. In prepress, we ensure that your printed materials are professionally prepared from the very beginning – on time, reliably, and in close collaboration with you.

Book design – content meets aesthetics
A high-quality book doesn't just start on the printing press – it begins with
perfect preparation. In our prepress department, we take special care
of all steps essential for production.
A book thrives on its content – but also on its appropriate design. Whether fiction,
nonfiction, or illustrated book:
- Design of cover & jacket (soft or hardcover)
- Layout of inner pages according to typographic standards
- Consideration of type area, register consistency, and running heads.
- ISBN & EAN-Barcode-Integration
We support you from the manuscript to the final print approval.
