What We Can Do for You

Prepress

An impressive printed piece that meets your specifications begins with accurate prepress. From preflighting to proofing, the magic of print production starts here. Whether a file has to be created from scratch, needs a little fine-tuning or is a print-ready PDF, we'll do everything to ensure your job looks as perfect as possible before it goes to print.

 

Our completely digital prepress department has the skills and equipment to handle all major desktop publishing files for Mac or PC. We also offer graphic design and layout services to suit any taste or budget. With nearly five decades of experience, our creative team can design everything from a simple business card to a full invitation package with foils and die-cutting. We'll work with you from start to finish to make stunning printed products that captivate your audience and give you something you can be proud to call your own.

​

Knight Abbey's InSite Prepress Portal makes web-based communication with us easier and more efficient than ever. You can upload files, view proofs, annotate changes and approve your jobs through this simple yet highly flexible internet portal. File transfers are secure and encrypted and retain a full history of your job. We also provide a free, secure FTP service and routine cloud archiving to protect your assets.

Printing

Whether it’s traditional offset with LED UV capabilities or the newest technology in large run roll-to-roll digital printing, Knight Abbey offers unsurpassed experience and resources to help make your project shine. We are a certified G7 Master Printer, using the most modern technology and standards to produce the closest match possible from proof to print.

 

We offer high-quality variable data printing (VDP) for targeted direct mail, utilizing digital printing and software applications to personalize each printed piece. In its simplest form, this may be a customized mailing address. But that's only the beginning! Digital printing offers so much more—seamlessly swapping out images, copy, color schemes and formatting for each recipient is possible. This is particularly useful for customers who wish to reach a variety of people with specific interests and needs. VDP offers you a wealth of possibilities to create powerful, relevant direct mail that speaks to individuals on a truly 1:1 basis.

​

If you need one poster for a presentation or hundreds of thousands of personalized postcards promoting a new business, we have the resources to make it happen...and we have a team that wants to see you succeed. With an eye for quality and attention to detail, our team can produce everything from high-end mailing pieces and magazines, to brochures and envelopes, and to dimensional arts and crafts projects that "WOW!" your customers.

Direct Mail

Mailing services don’t begin when it’s time to purchase postage. At Knight Abbey, we work closely with you from project conception to ensure that your piece is designed to maximize postage and mail cost-efficiently. In addition, we provide streamlined fulfillment to optimize efficiency while ensuring the timely response your audiences deserve. We also offer seamless mail entry and drop shipping to expedite mail processing and delivery times, plus mail tracking so you know when your mail delivers.

Whether it’s a postcard, self-mailer, donation letter or high-dimensional pieces, our team understands the ever-changing USPS regulations and applies that knowledge to maximize production. What does that mean for you? No surprises! It means you get the biggest return on your direct marketing budget.

We help you employ the tools that increase deliverability—from a clean list with data integrity to USPS tools such as NDC/SCF Destination Entry and Intelligent Mail® Barcode, National Change of Address and CASS™ address validation service. Through persistent list verification and deduping formulas, many customers realize a truer, targeted list from the beginning, resulting in greater ROI and response.

Knight Abbey’s in-house printing, design and variable data services mean your direct marketing projects are coordinated and executed seamlessly. For maximum quality and on-time delivery, count on us for fulfillment and mailing services.
