Communication is the key to achieving any goal. A project does not begin until all client expectations are defined and instructions are clearly understood. Using the latest electronic pre-press technology, each project is developed and completed in a timely and professional manner. Numerous internal quality control measures and attention to detail assure accuracy.

Since the time of Rudolf Koch’s chisel punch type, people have been striving to improve the look and feel of type. In 1737, Pierre Fourier invented the point system. There have been many improvements in the science and technology since then. At Gannett Offset/Minneapolis, our experienced desktop operators will assemble your pages and set your copy for the proper look. When communication is key to achieving your goals, having copy that is clear and readable goes a long way toward getting the message across to your clients.

Gannett Offset/Minneapolis’ scanning department uses consistent standards and guidelines for setting up files beginning with on-screen displays that give operators numerical readouts of image values. The equipment is self-calibrating to established standards. Color transparencies, reflective color art, black and white photos and other art up to 24" X 24" can be processed by the DS 618 drum scanner which scans to film or digital files. In addition to standard values, we can custom design special color set-ups for your specific printing applications.

Gannett Offset/Minneapolis’ litho prep department produces top-quality film and plates to ensure the very finest quality printing for each project. The very latest equipment, manned by experienced professionals, is calibrated to exacting standards to guarantee superior quality on press. Prep department associates work closely with Gannett Offset/Minneapolis’ Customer Service Reps to verify all job specifications prior to going on press.
