The Prepress department at La Crosse Graphics has seen significant growth in recent years. We have steadily upgraded our technology and equipment to anticipate the demands and meet the exacting standards of our clients' needs with speed, flexibility and unmatched quality. |

We utilize only the finest equipment available to produce the best results for you. We use the Creo/Kodak imaging system. This is the finest system available on the market today. The Creo/Kodak system can accept all file formats and has the ability to perform a variety of tasks simultaneously, such as previewing, trapping, imposing, image-setting, proofing and generating plates for press. Creo/Kodak gives us the ability to offer our customers the super-sharp stochastic screening for high-definition printing. If desired, conventional line screens will also continue to be available.
Our workflow today has evolved into using a PDF file format. This allows us to save the customer money, along with the ability to produce the customers' proofs and finished products faster. The use of InSite, our prepress and file transfer portal, allows our customers to upload and process files in record time.
To remain cost effective and maintain quality for our clients, we utilize two types of digital proofs: the Epson Stylus Pro 9800 and the Creo Iris 43 Wide. The Epson proof is a high-resolution proof that is used on press for color accuracy. The Iris 43 wide proof, although low resolution, allows the customer to see a proof that is backed up, or paginated in booklet form representing the finished product. This proofing process is critical in providing our clients with a high quality end-product. |

| InSite Internet Portal
The InSite Prepress Portal System is an Internet portal into the Kodak Prinergy Workflow System. It streamlines job submission, job-status tracking, online collaboration, and remote proofing or approval.
From any Web-enabled computer in any location at any time, customers, prepress operators, and customer service representatives can manage and track job activity, proof print jobs, collaborate with creative and prepress staff on changes, and approve work. A powerful, user-friendly collaboration tool, the InSite Prepress Portal System is an effective means to move jobs through production faster, eliminating opportunities for error, confusion, or delay.
