Industry insights, product updates, and technical deep-dives from the NowToPrint team.

How does Smart Quote work?

You describe the job in plain language. NowToPrint turns the brief into structured print specifications, highlights missing technical details, and prepares the quote request so suppliers can quote on the same scope.

Which files do I need?

You can start with a written brief. If you already have artwork, a PDF helps the preflight layer check size, bleed, fonts, color intent, and production readiness before the quote request is sent.

Why do preflight and imposition matter?

Preflight reduces surprises before a producer quotes or produces the job. Imposition planning helps align pages, folds, trim, and production layout with the intended print process.

How are shipping and lead time decided?

Shipping and lead time depend on the job, supplier location, buyer location, production method, quantity, destination, and selected delivery service. These details belong in the quote request and final supplier offer.

Start with Smart Quote

Describe the job once and let NowToPrint structure the technical quote request before producer offers are compared.
