is the blog of Colin Flashman, a prepress operator since 1997. The site aims to provide anyone preparing artwork for print with useful information to make their artwork flow seamlessly in prepress sections of any commercial printer. The tips on the site are an accumulation of experiences and trials during my time as a prepress operator, and the blog originally began in the year 2000 as my own rant
on an old employer’s website concerning what frustrated me the most about the artwork which was being processed. Apart from Colecandoo!, Colin also contributes to the printing community in the following ways:
* Contributing writer for InDesign Magazine and indesignsecrets.com;
* Previously spoken at PEPCON 2016 about Data Merge, and has had cameo speaking roles at other CPN events such as the InDesignConference 2016, and the CreativeWOW session of CreativeProWeek 2017.
* Previously spoken at several Adobe Users’ Group of South Australia sessions;
* An Adobe Community Professional (ACP) of the Adobe Forum
