Report Printing

Whether you’re preparing an annual report for your business or putting together some important information for a loan, grant or other business venture, we can help you with our specialised report printing services.

When it comes to report printing, here are some key considerations to think about when placing your order:

Exterior and Cover Design

No matter what kind of report you’re preparing, a neat design with an elegant cover is always going to make a better impression than something plain or unimaginative. The front cover is going to be the first point of contact readers have with the report, so having an engaging cover is essential. We work with designers who can help you create something that is imaginative, engaging and professional.

Inside Design

Reports are designed to be read, and so it’s also important to think about design when it comes to the interior of your report. You can increase the ease with which your report can be read by adding in some design features to break up the text. Adding graphs, charts and images can all contribute to the overall aesthetic of the report and make it more pleasing to read.

Readability 

Another important factor to consider when it comes to report printing is the overall readability of the report itself. To ensure optimal readability, you’ll need to ensure that the font, paper type, and colour choices are all optimised in a reader-friendly way. Fonts that are too small, too large or printed in strange colours might come off as unprofessional or worse, illegible.

Cost

There are a number of variables that will impact the overall cost of your report printing order. The first variable is the size of your order – while larger orders will obviously cost more than a lot of 10 or 20 reports, at Avenue we offer cost-effective prices to help you manage any bulk orders that you might need to make; for example , shouldthe report be manufactured digitally or litho. Another variable that will impact the price of your report is your chosen finish – adding a luxury finish such as die-cutting or Spot UV will increase your costs.

Spot UV Finish
A spot UV finish is a great way to make the title of your report stand out, alongside any relevant logos or other branding. Spot UV adds a gloss coating to chosen areas of your printed product (typically the cover) and adds a real professional touch. Spot UV printing is very common in report printing.

Die-Cutting

If you want to take a more imaginative and creative route, die-cutting can also be used as a finish on most reports. Die-cutting involves using a die to create shapes on a printed product, and can add a touch of unique innovation to most products. We’d recommend using die-cutting in a more traditional way when it comes to report printing, aka using the die-cutting finish to highlight your brand logo or reveal supplementary information.

Matt or Gloss Finish
If you’re printing lots of reports or you simply don’t need a special finish for this particular order, that’s no problem. We’d recommend our classic matt finishes or gloss finishes for most reports – we can also offer recycled paper if you’re producing lots of reports and want to remain eco-conscious.

Extra Finishes: Durability and Ease of Use

Lamination

If your report is going to be frequently used or passed around, you might want to think about adding lamination protection. This will safeguard your report against coffee spills, greasy fingers and most other forms of wear and tear.

Tab Dividers 

Long report? Make things easier by adding tab dividers to your report, so you can easily find your place or make a quick reference when needed.

Acetate covers

Acetate covers will help to protect the interior of your report from coffee spills and finger stains, while also giving your report a professional, high-quality appearance.

“Second time working with Avenue Printing Ltd and not the last. The result has been perfect both time (an exhibition catalogue and a picture book), advice and guidance are precious and on point with what I’m looking for and my budget. Jonathan is always really quick to answer and thorough.”

• Suzon

“I run a Car Servicing business and have been using Avenue for a few years now for whole range of printing and signage – their service is very good. Had some pavement signs delivered on Tuesday and there was an issue with one of the units. The response was amazing – within 24 hours the faulty unit was picked up and a new replacement supplied.”
