Hi folks,
I may be looking for a printer (company, that is not device) who can
print nice looking copies of documents that I have constructed and
tested on a 300dpi (normal resolution) laser printer. That is, I want
someone to whom I can send .dvi files and get back a 1000dpi or better
printed copy of my document. Another requirement that may narrow the
choices is that I will have to send them some Metafont sources for
unusual faces that will be needed in addition to Computer Modern.
This is for the Journal of Southeast Asian Language Teaching, so in
particular, I will need IPA and Thai fonts at least, and by the time
we really get into this big-time, I hope to have at least Khmer,
Burmese and Lao fonts prepared also. (I am learning Metafont and
trying to design them at the same time.) I don't expect that very
many printing companies have such things lying around already.
So far, the journal has been produced using a DEC LN03 300dpi laser
printer, but the editorial board would like to improve the quality, if
it is feasible.
All of this means we will be needing to deal with a comparatively
knowledgeable outfit, and since we are located in Muncie IN rather
than in some major metropolis, I expect that we will have to deal with
them by mail and phone. I would really like to hear from anybody who
has had any relevant experience. I need any recommendations I can
get.
If you are a printer who fits that description, I would be happy to
hear from you directly too.
