and check the details and layout for accuracy, prepare and create files
for print production, and create or modify electronic layouts and templates
using the Preps imposition software. There will be a variety of materials
provided by the clients to build and produce their jobs, ranging from
provided photos and written text, to partially built or scanned files. Color
proofs and pdf's will be prepared for customer approval, and plates will
be generated for use in the pressroom.

Customer mailing lists will need to be worked on in Excel, to prepare the

You must demonstrate a sharp eye for detail and adhere to department quality standards, while completing the work accurately in a time-sensitive environment. Experience with a digital copier or wide format equipment would be a plus.
