Full Graphic Services

At Little Guy Press you don’t have to settle for a basic pre-made graphic outline. We will build your graphic designs tailored to your specific needs by utilizing our parent company Sharkey Graphic Solutions, under the same roof. As a bonus we will store all of your graphic files indefinitely using our state of the art 16T Drobo redundancy back up file storage system, and at no extra cost to you. Since our graphic design company also provides graphic design services for other local printers and print brokers we may have already worked on your files without you even knowing it.

Services Available

New Logo Creation

We will work with you to create a logo that is tailored to your business as well as your personal taste. Once you are completely satisfied with the final result we can convert your logo to all formats needed for all situations including web use as well as any printing formats.

Restoration

If you have an existing logo that needs to be rebuilt to its original quality we can do that too, or even make changes you’ve been wanting to have done.

Notice how we can take a low resolution image and make it into something that you are proud to have printed.

Vector Recreation

Some types of printing require vector artwork so your dot images or “Continuous Tones” cannot be used for this purpose. This is where we come in by redrawing your jpg or tif file in Adobe Illustrator to get the vector file you need.

Full Preflighting Services

If you supply your own graphic files we will completely preflight them to assure problem free printing. If we find any digital file issues we will usually fix them without passing on extra costs to you for this service. If the issue (or issues) are extensive we will contact you in a timely manner to provide you with a detailed description of the problems, what we will need to do to correct the issue and any extra costs which will be incurred to correct the problem. We will always contact you first before performing extra work which would incur extra costs above and beyond your original quote.

File Format Conversion Service

We appreciate your need for consistency between your printed marketing material and your web media. If you choose Little Guy Press, we are always happy to convert your digital print ready files to web ready files for your web site or other online media, and we will do this at a surprisingly reasonable price, and often for free as a “Thank You” for doing business with us. By doing this it will assure consistency between what you have printed and what you will post on your web site. This will also significantly reduce your overall costs since your web designer will not have to go through the process of trying to recreate what has already been created. This is just one example of how Little Guy Press wants to make life as easy as possible to our valued customers.

Fillable PDFs

Fillable PDFs

If you are looking for an alternative option to filling out paperwork by hand, internally or by your clients, consider using Fillable PDF Forms”. We can create Fillable PDF Forms that can be filled out, saved and emailed back to you on regular PC computers as well as Macs. The only software needed to complete these forms is Acrobat Reader Version 5 or higher, which is loaded on almost every computer in use today. These forms can be very basic and simple to extremely complex with automatically calculating mathematical fields. Try this one as an example of how this works.

Interactive PDFs w/ Page Turn, Internal & External Links

We can take your books and make them into a web ready file which can have flip pages and built in internal and external links. This can be a great feature when you would like to post a link to your book or manual on your web site. Experiment with the sample shown to see how it works. Grab the corner of the pages to see how they turn. Click on the table of contents articles and watch it go to that page.
