Since John and I arrived at Gateway Publishing, only the first three projects were typeset by others before we met you. We can’t say enough about how pleased we are with your company, your kind and efficient staff, and the quality of your work at an affordable price.

Nord Compo has not only saved us a lot of money but working with them has significantly shortened our prepress process, leaving us more time for marketing.

I can't begin to thank you enough for making this such a pleasant process. You were highly conscientious, prompt, and most of all, LOVELY to work with! Plus, I truly enjoyed our cultural exchange along the way. I strongly suspect that we will be working with your company again in the future, and I hope, with you in particular.
