The team at Alaska Printing Inc. is absolutely amazing. They are so timely, so professional, and so friendly. I have been taking all of my companies printing to their shop, and they have never steered me in the wrong direction. They will go above and beyond to help you achieve the best quality work for your buck. I highly recommend them.

They do a great job. I use them to print waterproof field maps, posters, etc. for my business. They also did a wonderful job on my mother's eulogy booklets. I submit my jobs online via their website and then pick up when they're ready. Easy.

As small business owners, responsiveness and accuracy are both critical in a printer, and Alaska Printing has been nothing short of exceptional every time we've needed them. I'm headed over to their website to start another project right now. You should, too.

I am Alaska artist V Rae's husband. All of the fine art paper prints that we sell in gift shops and galleries throughout Alaska and other states are produced by Alaska Printing. Mike, Kelsey and all of the staff are highly responsive, attentive to detail, flexible to new ideas, personally engaging and always on the cutting edge of the professional print industry. Five stars is an understatement.

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Jan 20, 2022
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Jan 20, 2022

Once you approve your proof, our typical turnaround time for digital and wide format jobs is 3-5 working days, and 7-10 working days for offset jobs. These are only standard time frames; individual print jobs may take more or less time than this depending on a variety of factors.

What file format should I use when submitting my electronic document for printing?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Jan 20, 2022
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Jan 20, 2022

PDF (Portable Document Format) is the most common and preferred file format for submitting digital documents. With the installation of a PDF print driver on your computer, virtually any program can generate a PDF file suitable for printing. Both commercial and free PDF print drivers are available online for download from different sources.

Is white considered a printing color?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021

Not typically. Because white is the default color of paper, it is simply recognized as the absence of any ink. However, when using colored paper, white ink may be used if any text or graphic requires it.

Why do the printed colors look different from the colors on my screen?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021

Every screen will have a different resolution and will display colors differently. In addition, the colors on your screen are produced using the color model called RGB (Red, Green, Blue) to display images on your screen, which is a different process than the one used by printers to render images. Both of these combined means that there is no way for us to reproduce the color you see on your screen when we create a printed product.

What is the Pantone Matching System!

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Dec 21, 2021

The Pantone Matching System (PMS) is a color reproduction standard in which colors all across the spectrum are each identified by a unique, independent number. The use of PMS allows us to precisely match colors and maintain color consistency throughout the printing process.

What is a proof, and why is it important that I look at it?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Nov 21, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Nov 21, 2021

A proof is a mockup of what your printed piece will look like. It is important to carefully review your proof for both spelling/grammatical errors and layout before approving it, as once you approve it, we are released from any liability to reprint due to spelling or graphics errors.

At what resolution should I save my photos and graphics?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Oct 22, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Oct 22, 2021

For good print quality, files and graphics should be saved to at least 300 dpi. Anything less than that can result in a grainy or blurry printed piece.

Can you provide some tips on how to save my design files?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Oct 22, 2021
Alaska Printing, Inc. | Oct 22, 2021

Providing us with a high resolution (at least 300 dpi) PDF is usually a good option when submitting your print-ready files to us. If you need us to work on your design file for you, then we would prefer having the native file (the Photoshop or Illustrator file, for example) including the layers, so we can make any adjustments needed. Contact us if you're unsure about the format you should submit your file in.

How do I go about getting an estimate from you?

Alaska Printing, Inc. | Oct 22, 2021
