Copresco has won two awards for color printing in Gold Ink competition for a college literary journal and a marketing annual report. Book Business, Printing Impressions and Publishing Executive magazines jointly sponsor the competition.

The artistic 62-page journal features a full-color, laminated cover designed by a student. Eight pages of full-color student photos printed on gloss stock add visual interest to the black & white literary pages.

The 36-page marketing report contains pages with full-color coverage, tints, vignettes and intricate charts and graphs. The adhesive-bound booklet was printed on gloss paper for rich reproduction of text and graphics.

"These winning entries not only reflect the high printing standards of our industry," they show the versatility of our digital on-demand printing services," says president and CEO Steve Johnson. 

"The literary journal was designed in a 5-1/2" x 8" format that fits nicely in your hands and is easy to read. Digital printing-combined with adhesive binding-allowed the designer to mix photo pages with text pages without the restrictions of multiple-page signatures. Copresco's workflow accommodates a wide range of document sizes to meet demanding design requirements," Johnson explained.

"The book was produced on a rush basis to meet the deadline created by late submissions by the contributors-no problem for our fast turnaround digital workflow," he added.

"The beautifully designed marketing report is a good example of how business and technical information can be presented in a creative and informative format that commands the reader's attention. You also get big winners when you combine the high quality of digital printing with the economy of short press runs, " Johnson concluded.
