Codra Enterprises has consistently outperformed the field in color reproduction and color separation. From noted monotone, duotone, and tritone photography books, to full four color art pieces, we have demonstrated the skill required to please even the finest eyes of the photographers themselves. Services offered:
For printing from supplied films to creating film from files or original artwork, we are able to print at many varied line screens to suit the many variables of your particular printing. • CTP Computer-To-Plate We can produce CTP imaging for both traditional line screens and FM screenings. FM Screening/Spectra Screening utilizes the state-of-the-art technologies that steer away from visible line screens toward mathematical random dot placement. • High-Resolution Drum Scanning From slides, transparencies, reflective art, to original artwork, we have provided quality drum scanning at extremely reasonable rates. • Proofing We provide both traditional wet proofs and digital proofs. Our press proofs are printed on the actual production stock which provide a close representation of how the final production printing will look on press. Our digital proofs are color calibrated to the production press output. These two proofing systems provide everything necessary to represent accurately what will be printing on press. Whether its CTP or traditional printing, Codra takes the guesswork out of the final output. • Film Duplication We provide film duplication services that converts negative film to positive film suitable for printing in Asia. Please contact your representative if you have any questions when providing film for your project. • File Prep On the file side, Codra's experience can help you save valuable time. We perform light pre-flighting here on the US side to prevent delays like missing fonts or images. If you need to see a list of program files we support and preferences for file set up, please see our file specification page. |

When dealing with all the factors brought together in shipping from overseas, waiting for customs brokers and freight forwarders, trucking companies, etc, there are several areas where shipments can be delayed.
