An independently owned company located in London, Ontario, Canada, Autumn Graphics Ltd. provides prepress, printing plate production, and graphics management services to a range of customers, including consumer packaged goods companies, converters, printers, and advertising agencies. As it illustrates on its Web site (www.autumngraphics.on.ca), the company has worked with artwork files for a variety of brand name products that depend upon accuracy and consistency for consumer acceptance and for product safety. Some examples include files for cartons, labels, paperboard sleeves, and other types of packaging for food and beverage, OTC, and pharmaceutical brands.

Established more than 25 years ago, Autumn Graphics was built on "a foundation of business integrity and production excellence," the company says. So when it found itself several years ago struggling to keep up with manual inspection of its final production workflow files, it changed course and made the investment in a faster, more accurate solution: the Scan-TVS™ electronic artwork comparator from Global Vision, Inc. (www.globalvisioninc.com).

"When it got to the point where we would have had to add staff to increase throughput without affecting quality, we decided to look at alternative processes," recalls Autumn Graphics president Ben Abray.
