We
started our business in
the production of advertising premium in 1986 and now our scope of
services have been extended to include printing, decoration, graphic
design, trophy making and multimedia production. In the past 19 years,
we have never ceased exploring new ideas or technologies for enhancing
the efficiency and quality of production. For instance, we might be one
of the pioneers recognizing the
potential of "WintelPC" as a low cost
but feasible hardware platform in "desktop publishing"
and put it into
practical production. Since 1994, we started to study the feasibility
of Desktop printing on Wintel machine,
which was relatively less
advanced but cost much less. As a matter of fact, a lot of simple print
jobs like hot blocking or stationery printing did not need very
powerful computer. Entering the millenium, we started using AMD machine
to further reduce our hardware cost. Now the development has proved we
made a right move then. Even in the era when Wintel was slower, the
lower cost of storage enabled us to host the data for our customer and
in turn the customer was benefited for not necessary to pay artwork
charge once an again on repeat-orders.
Other
than the technical aspect, to adapt ourself in
this new business and legal context, in 1997, not until the new amended
copyright ordinance came into effect, we set up our code of practice
and release stepping guidelines on artwork production and printing (ie.
"support 1-3") for both our staff and customers. The code of practice
and stepping guideline incorporated the concept of intellectual
property protection and privacy protection into our operation.
We started to use
email since 1994 but we did not go
crazy during the Millieum IT bubble. We built our own web-site in
March, 2004 when the cost of web hosting fell to a reasonable level. At
the very beginning, the web not only serves as a commercial show case
but also a channel for us to contribute to the IT and creative
industry. From time to time, on our "freedownload area",
we will
release some selected images freely for download from our own image
library of which the stock amounted to more than ten thousands. On our
"Customer Support" pages, we release some of our internal reference
guides on design and printing to the public without charges. We also
provide free information services on the latest development of some
famous and, of course the most important, legal freewares. These
freewares, especially those released under GPL(general public licence)
have contributed a lot to the development IT industries but their
authors choose not to take any monetary benefit from their work. In the
past, only technical personnels of IT industries knew their
contribution. Now we spare some of our bandwidth to show how these
generous programmers have done to help personal users or SMEs having a
tight budget to narrow the digital divide. More information is
available on our web page "freeware link"
In our wish list, the following jobs are ranked the
highest priority:
Continue to develope the business of
OEM, ODM and OBM Expand and improve the direct sale
network. Study the feasibility of desktop
publishing and multimedia production on the plateform of
Linux. Make contribution to the public along
with the development of our business by:
- providing more carefully selected resources links under sensible
categoriesto to members of relevant industries
- building our own blog to share our view and vision with the public on
our industry.
We believe the words
of mouth speaks louder than paid
advertisement. Our clients range from walk-in individuals to corporate
customers, social service organization, education institution and
government departments. Most of them come by referral from old
customers. We have strong knowledge background in both the traditional
arts & crafts and modern technology relating to advertising,
printing and information technology. We also have good connection with
a number of reliable vendors who are direct producers or technical
personnels working on job-order basis. Therefore, our operation cost is
minimized and out perform those sales-oriented advertising companies.

feasibility of a production plan or we can work out a number of
solutions for your choices. If you are in need of such services, please
