Client Resources

Here’s a handy checklist to help you rest easy so that your job will run smoothly.

• Did you package your file to include the correct file formats? (PDF, Ai, Id)
• Do you have a print-ready PDF including bleed?
• Does your packaged file include fonts?
• Are all your colors in 4-color or PMS colors? Do you have all of your black-and-white images in greyscale?
• Are all your images the best they can be? 300 dpi or higher (we will print lower-res files, but the quality will be diminished)

If you meet all these requirements, then you’re ready to send us your file!

We pride ourselves on quick turnarounds without missing deadlines. Each job has a custom timeline but below is an overview of our general timelines to help you gauge your project due dates. If your project has a specific due date, please let us know ahead of time or we will gauge your project on the timelines below. (All days below are working days. We run 1-2 shifts, Monday-Friday)

• Design: 2+ Days. Depends on complexity and schedules
• Digital Printing: 3-7 Days. Includes small runs, under 13x19 sheets flat, very small mailings
• Offset Printing: 7-10 Days
• Bulk Mailing: 7-10 Days + Postal Days, which we can't control. Our mailing dept. can assist on the best days to mail to hit your target dates.
• Promotional Items: 10-14 Days
• Specialty Papers: Please allow an additional 3-5 days if your job requires specialty paper to be imported.
• Photography / Video: Please schedule 2 weeks out. Turnaround is usually 5-7 business days for photos and video on a per-project basis.
• Fulfillment: Pick and ship dates vary depending on dates established at the time of fulfillment setup. Typically, we pick orders 2-3x per week on average.

Shipping days are not included in the times above. The due date you give us will include shipping times so your project arrives on time.

I recently had a great experience with Colortech. Austin and all of the employees I interacted with were very personable, responsive, and took a very non-standard request from me, talked through it and made it happen. I can’t recommend them enough and will definitely be going to them in the future for my needs! Thanks again!

Have been working with Colortech for several years now and have nothing but great things to say. They are very responsive, quality of work is excellent and their pricing is always fair. They are a family owned company and it always feels that way in dealing with them. Austin, our sales rep, is a great guy who takes the time to do the little things and ask the right questions. He stops by our office every now and then just to say hello and drop off delicious Lebanon pretzels. Highly recommend!

We have partnered with Colortech with many of our business printing needs. Not only is their printing quality incredible but their customer service is off the charts.  I have had nothing but great customer service from everyone I have had contact with at Colortech. Austin, Rick, Sondra, Samantha and the whole team always go out of their way to turn our projects around quickly, meet timelines, budgets and produce stellar pieces. Very happy to work with a local printer who is so pleasant to do business with.   Hugely recommend!!

Colortech helped me turn an old, brittle blueprint of my family feed store into a high quality print for me to frame in my office. I wasn’t sure if this was something that could be done, or if anyone was willing to attempt, but they said yes without hesitation. Turnaround was quick, and super affordable. They treated me like family when I walked in, and explained the process to me so we both had a full understanding of what was to be delivered.
