Job description

Growing label and graphics manufacturing company is seeking a highly detail oriented Typesetter / Prepress Production Artist to join our team.

This position focuses on preparing and processing customer supplied artwork for print production. This is not a graphic design role. We are a printing and manufacturing environment, not a design studio.

The ideal candidate must have a strong technical command of Adobe Illustrator, exceptional attention to detail, and a solid understanding of print production requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare and process customer supplied artwork for print production based on drawings, specifications, and production requirements

• Perform accurate layout setup using Illustrator measurement tools, scaling, alignment, and dimension control

• Conduct thorough preflight checks prior to production

• Identify and correct issues related to size, proportion, resolution, fonts, and file construction

• Perform color corrections using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to meet production standards

• Generate and send proofs for customer approval

• Output files for multiple printing technologies including wide format digital printers

• Manage multiple jobs simultaneously while meeting production deadlines

Requirements

• Minimum 3 years experience in print production or prepress environment

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Illustrator required

• Strong understanding of Illustrator measuring tools, scaling, positioning, and precision layout work

• Ability to accurately build files to exact dimensions and production specifications

• Experience performing color corrections in both Illustrator and Photoshop

• Strong attention to detail and organizational skills

• Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced production environment

Important Note

This role requires technical production expertise rather than creative design ability. Candidates must be comfortable working within established customer artwork and production specifications.

Company Description

We are a growing label & specialty printing company located in Garfield, NJ. We offer silk screening, flexo printing, wide format digital printing, hot stamping, table cutting & routing, laser cutting, die-cutting and die-making. All manufacturing is done in our 25000 sq. ft. facility.
