A quick introduction to Custom Printable Maps |
|
||||||||||
Custom Printable Maps are maps which have been specifically designed for high quality print material, such as brochures, information circulars, annual reports, posters, banners and other large format media, indoor or out. From the most simple maps to specialised topic maps, from tiny flyer
maps to billboard size maps, from 1 map to a multi-map series, you will
find it all on offer here. |

Ordering Printable Maps |
|||
There are a few details we will need in order to finalise your order, things like size (width x height in cm), what the map will be used for (brochure, poster etc) and information on what content you require on the map. If you are unsure of the technical details (colour, resolution, file format etc) we can liaise with your designer or agency to get the correct specifications for your project. Failing that we will simply produce the map in the most common format. |

Please note that there is no way that you will be able to tell the difference between a low-res web map and a high-res printable map on your screen. The difference (and what a difference it is!) can only be seen once the map has been printed. Secondly all these printable maps are A4 and larger in size and it is impossible to show you the full size maps in this sample gallery due to the file sizes involved. |

Proofing and delivery of your Custom Printable Maps |
|||
During the initial design phase you will receive proofs of your map(s) via email. This gives you the opportunity to make alterations and provide input. For customers in the Johannesburg and Pretoria area we can supply high-quality full colour proofs to make sure that the colours and other details are correct before you commit to a mass print run. The final PDF, TIFF or JPEG file(s) can be sent to you and/or to your designer, either via email, a FTP or 'file transfer' site, or on CD-ROM. |

|
Custom Printable Map production times |
|||
The production time depends on many things (number of maps, sizes, level of detail, special effects etc) together with the level of our current workload. Small and simple printable map orders can usually be delivered within a few days to a week. Larger and more complicated orders may have to be scheduled a few months in advance. We do not recommend nor do we particularly like last-minute jobs as there is is simply way too much room for errors which, once the map is printed, are impossible to rectify. |
