Packaging

6. PACKAGING

As part of our full service philosophy, we can
provide printwork and any special packaging
procurement for you. Due to high yearly volumes
we order with our qualified printwork suppliers, we
can offer competitive prices. If you wish to utilise
this service we request that your graphic studio
provides components according to chapter 6.2.,
with chapter 6.3. being valid for the printwork
carried out by us.

Sony DADC can also process text inserts and similar
printwork provided by you. In such cases please
ensure that these comply with chapters 6.3. to 6.5.

6.1. Printing Process

Generally, the printwork is manufactured by
qualified printers in four-colour offset print and the
use of additional special colours and varnishing is
possible.

6.2. Film Specifications for

the Production of Printwork
and Stickers

Non-compliance with the specifications and
any additional expenses caused shall be
charged separately.

Please arrange films in such a way that the
booklet is closed at the left. With special
products such as leporello, posters, etc.
please enclose a folding sample.

Films must have a bleed of 3 mm. The
cutting marks are arranged outside of the
bleed.

To avoid mismatches, please supply a
compulsory match print with all films.
However, please note that there may still
be slight colour deviations between proof
and printwork.

The films should not be damaged and
must be packed in a roll container or
carton to prevent folding.

If you request a colour match between
printwork and DVD label print, special
colours have to be specified in the same
colour system.

To protect your product against piracy and
to clearly identify the holder of the rights,
we ask you to indicate the name and
address of the music company on the
label film or on the printwork.

When producing your films please mind
that colour differences between the
printwork and the DVDs may occur, since
with the latter a base of polycarbonate with
reflecting aluminium coating is printed on
and therefore colour differences compared
to printing on paper may result.

To provide (as much as possible) a compli-
ance of the colours of printwork (e.g.
booklet) with the DVD label print, we advise
to preprint a full white base on the DVD.

Send only smooth offset films (positive,
right reading, emulsion side down)

Optimum screening for printwork films:
70 l/cm

All printwork must have a catalogue
number.

Page number on all films.

Please do not indicate origin details except
for ”Made in EU”. Other data with regard
to origin are not admissible and will be
removed.

Please mark each film with the respective
colour.
