What are my options with
1-color printing to create a higher impact publication?
Most 1-color printing is black ink on a white stock. However,
you can vary the ink cover to perhaps a blue, red or brown
to create a different look. You can also print different
color inks on different color papers to create an even
more dramatic look.
What are my options with
2-color printing?
2-color print publications frequently use black and one
other color to create a higher impact than can be achieved
with 1-color. However, any two colors can often be used
to create just the look you need without the time and
expense of going to 4-color process printing.
What are the advantages
of full color printing?
The highest quality and most appealing print publications
are printed in full color using the 4-color (CMYK or Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Black)
offset printing process. In contrast, computer monitors
use a different color model called RGB (Red-Blue-Green).
The result is often a difference between what we see on
the screen and what we see in a printed piece. Studies
have shown that full color increases readership and that
there is over a 60 % increase in retention with full color
versus black and white. Pick from an almost endless pallet
of colors to create your next high quality, impact document
in full living color.

What is the difference between
File Upload and File Transfer Protocol (FTP)?
File upload is transfer files via our web site, File Transfer
Protocol or FTP will allow you to transfer larger files
via our FTP site, using an FTP client such as CuteFTP
or WSFTP.
What is the best File Transfer
option?
It depends; all of them have their bright spots. File
upload can be done right on the web site and will allow
you to quickly send files over the Internet. E-mail will
allow you to attach files and send quickly through the
e-mail servers. Both File upload and e-mail can have restrictions
in the size of the files being sent over the Internet.
FTP or File Transfer Protocol, can handle very large files,
and is very stable when transferring. Depending on the
size of your files you should choose the option that you
are most comfortable with.

Should I do anything special if I'm on AOL?
If you use America Online, you should be aware that AOL
can limit your inactivity on the web and disconnect you
if you are not a current, active user. Uploading files
appears to be inactivity to AOL. It is recommended that
you keep your AOL email account open at the same time
you are uploading your files. This can trick AOL programming
into thinking you are still active on the Internet, thereby
preventing the possibility of getting disconnected during
your file upload.
