Good Imprint is much occupied in the design and implementation of websites, small and large, servicing a variety of clients in the academic, consumer magazine, industrial design, charity and consumer electronics worlds. Working both independently and in conjunction with the publishing & marketing agency Kava Media, Good Imprint specialises in 'clean', elegant websites that are inviting, informative and quick to display.

Options include database-driven pages, an approach confering many advantages, not least in allowing the client to use a standard web browser to add pages or update the existing content; no specialist software or knowledge of web design is required. Many of the sites shown in the Portfolio below are maintained in this manner.

Font development
Customised fonts for Macintosh or PC. Good Imprint has produced Eastern European character additions to standard fonts used by Classic Record Collector, Gramophone and International Record Review. The same service was provided to BBC Proms for its programme booklets from 2006 onwards. A further speciality is the development of ASCII-based filters to automate the conversion of text to display these specially coded characters.

Page layout

Completed jobs are supplied in QuarkXPress or Print/Press optimised PDF format according to requirements. Where preferred Good Imprint can also arrange delivery of completed bulk print jobs through its connections with a small network of professional printing agencies.
