As a regular advertiser in Charterhouse Communications publications, you must be aware of the growing changes in print production.


As of the JULY 2001 issues, Charterhouse Communications are going direct to plate.

This process eliminates the film process that has been in use for several decades.

This is good news for advertisers, as you can now simply supply us with digital files. No more costly film separations saving you time and money.

Our preferred digital files are the industry standard PDF format - which will be very familiar to your designers and agencies (as above).

Other digital files can be converted by us into PDF if necessary (as above). There may be occasions when you find you must send us film separations and we will scan them directly - a handling charge of £100 will be made for this.

No charge will be made for electronically received files via ISDN, Zip,CD etc.


Charterhouse Communications is an established, productive and successful company that serves the fast moving Financial Services Industry creating successful campaigns and providing an effective marketing resource for your products.
