How printing works
Welcome
The Magazine Production Company
A fixed price-per-page rate solution for independent publishers of all sizes is here.

Your hunt to find magazine
design and production
specialists is over.
Whatever the size, the pages, the frequency, the quantity… we’re here to produce your publication

Our forté is offering a comprehensive magazine design, layout and production solution for the independent publisher. Our cost-effective service provides you with an all-inclusive price before work commences. This means you can budget ahead with confidence.

Many companies today are unable to justify the costs associated with employing full-time designers, design agencies, printing houses or freelancers.

Today’s broadband and PDF technologies allow projects to be completed with ease, at your convenience, without needing to operate under one roof. In fact we have created magazines, with quick turn round times, for publishers in the US, Europe and, of course, here in the UK. It is as if we are working from an office next door.

Our ‘pay-as-you-go’ fixed price-per-page magazine design and production solution allows you, not only budget ahead, but to keep your costs down. Our rates can be half of that employing a full-time magazine designer and production staff.

We will take into account all of the work necessary to get your magazine from flat plan to the printing press. All you need do is to supply finalised text and images.

Our comprehensive service includes: creating and organising your flat plan; file preparation; design / page layouts; image manipulation; colour-balancing, enhancing images; overall production; creation of advertisements (subject to sight of work); chasing of advertisements; creating and sending PDF proofs by e-mail; digital proofs; amendments; creating compliant PDF files for commercial printing; remotely uploading pages via IP direct into the RIP server at the printing company, back-up of all raw files; supplying the client with low & high resolution PDF files on CD; and anything else that isn’t listed here.

Not got a magazine but need one?

One of our team of specialists will develop a style for your publication that will suit your specific market target. All our staff are fully conversant with all the latest commercial software and technologies.

Whatever your requirement you can be assured of first-class personal service.

The pricing is straight forward – a simple page rate*. This allows you to budget ahead with confidence before work commences.

* Page rates are only available to magazines, newsletters and brochures with more than 32pp. Pages under this will be chargeable by the hour with exception to Community Magazines. Click here If you have a Community Magazine.
