Reasons
why Lifetouch is your best choice for your school's yearbook.
The Company
Lifetouch Publishing is a company well known in the scholastic marketplace
for its capabilities in printing school memory books and yearbooks. Over
15,000 schools nationwide have chosen Lifetouch to be their publishing
partners with more coming on board every day.
Our Commitment
All of us at Lifetouch publishing are committed to you and your yearbook!
Being employee-owners, we are passionate about doing a great job for you
because we all win when that happens! Pride in performance is what makes us
different and puts us a significant step above our competitors.
Technology
Last year, Lifetouch produced more than 3.5 million books for customers all
over the country! In order to be on the leading edge, we continually invest
in digital technology to set new yearbook industry standards. You can rest
assured your yearbook will be produced with the finest and most efficient
equipment in the business.
Ecology
Lifetouch Publishing is totally committed to the environment. All possible
scrap paper is collected for recycling and silver is reclaimed from our
photographic processes. Aluminum plates, plastics, and mylars are also recycled.
This reduces costs, which are passed along to you.
Portrait Pages
As your school picture company, we will support all of your photo needs for
the portrait section of your book. Whether it be die-cut prints
alphabetically sorted in windowed sleeves, or a digital portrait section,
complete with our pre-proof "FLASH" cards, Lifetouch can
accommodate your needs. Lifetouch actually invented the first digital frame
grabbing process and equipment in the school picture industry and has been successfully
using the trademarked "No-Touch" system for over 7 years.
Photo Support
Because we are a school picture company, we pride ourselves in our
photography experience. We will have on going photo workshops, working with
the cameras at the school and teaching proper loading techniques, film usage,
composition, instructional slide shows, and photo management. If your school
is ready for digital candid photography, our experts can help you purchase
the appropriate camera for publishing purposes using our nationwide buying
power! We will also show you how to place a digital file on a layout page and
the proper pre-press submission techniques.
Deadlines
We have the most generous deadlines in the business, with our first color
deadline being Dec.1st. Final deadlines are based on the requested ship
dates.
Workshops
Lifetouch will provide you and your yearbook department with on-going
workshops, scheduled to meet the needs of your school. We will train your
staff on the computer skills needed to submit pages, plan the "page
ladder" to co-ordinate the theme of your book, incorporate our vast
selection of cover designs and end sheet choices into your program, and
constantly help you to stay "on track" and meet the plant
deadlines. We also offer a 3 day yearbook "camp" in August for
advisors and students.
