PRINT UPDATE

I have had a lot of trouble with this printing. I sent off my work to be printed last friday to Ashley Press, which all went smoothly with the man I was emailing asking me what paper quality I wanted. I then emailed him this Monday evening just gone asking when this work would be done by (as the deadline is Tuesday next week), there was no reply for 2 days! I then decided to contact Minute Man Press as I thought Ashley Press would not get back to me. I asked them if they would print off my work, and it all went smoothly, and have sent them the PDF and this should be ready by Monday morning. 

I decided to email Ashley Press again today (Thursday) to double check what the status update was on my work, and he said it was ready and I could come and collect it tomorrow (Friday), SO I am going to end up with two copies of my magazine overall, resulting in about £50 worth of damage, but i'm really hoping it will be worth it in the end. I am not worried about having two copies, as this will give me the opportunity to choose which magazine type I like best, and which would be better for the final deadline.

The Ashley Press company are printing my magazine with a harder weight front and back cover, which will be good for presentation purposes. I am unsure though of how this magazine will be bound! Minute Man Press are printing my pages by A3 and then stapling down the centre, which is what real magazines are printed like. I will have two very different final magazines which will contain the same information and content inside. Fingers crossed I will like both of them, or even one!!!! Eeeeek!!
