Penguin Book Proof Stage

Last weekend Stefan worked on the proofs of his upcoming penguin book “Penguin – A Story of Survival” and made sure, that all images will be printed in the best quality possible.

For those unfamiliar with the stages of a book: upon receiving the proofs it is the authors task to make sure there is no residual dust on the images, to check whether the print quality (colors, gradation, etc.) is good and also to check whether all images will be correctly displayed after the pages are cut into their final format (especially for so-called full bleed images, which spread over two pages). It’s a process where attention to detail is of the utmost important, but Stefan made sure that even the tiniest mistakes were mitigated.

In a few days the book will be printed! 6,000 copies (German & English language) in the first run. Exciting times! 🙂
