It is our business to make your business look good.
All stand out print pieces start with an idea and it is up to a professional and talented graphic designer to bring those ideas to life.
At Worldwide, we understand just how important good graphic design is. That’s why in every centre across Australia you’ll find qualified graphic designers hard at work. Our talented team can be found conceptualising ideas, creating artwork, typesetting or adding the finishing touches to a project. With access to state-of-the-art equipment, we ensure that our in-house graphic designers are trained and equipped to deliver unmatched creative solutions to your brief.
Graphic design is the creative starting block for all print, promotion and digital concepts. It is an important investment to ensure your communication material is professionally presented, consistent and follows current design trends.

This is part of the process that is often skirted over in too little detail. A solid design brief ensures that no time is wasted, and that you receive targeted options as soon as possible.
The brief also helps us focus our attention on the areas that best serve your business in its endeavours to better communicate with its clients both internally and externally.
In order to assist you through the thought process, we have created a design brief questionnaire, which will significantly assist our designers.
We take the information you’ve given us, and begin the second stage taking the following into consideration; your competition, trends in the market, what sets you apart, your history, your future, your current brand, and the one you aspire to.
Again, it’s important to provide as much information as possible in the design brief / questionnaire, in order for a comprehensive approach towards research and brainstorming.
The concepts stage is very important as it allows the designer to explore different ideas quickly and fluidly. A fair portion of the time spent on the design is spent at this stage in deciding what design will work best and should be taken on to the next stage.
Â
Once you receive the design concepts, you will need to spend some time thinking about what we’ve provided and how they have met your brief.
We will contact you in order to review the concepts and elicit your initial thoughts.
Following your review, we will then either finalise the design based on feedback or make revisions to the design as required.
Following each revision, we will email you a PDF for review.
Following final approval of the design. It is ready to be delivered to you or can be sent straight off to our team of print experts for production.
Portable Document Format (PDF) is the industry standard for saving files in an acceptable format. When exporting your document, it is important to ensure all images and colours are in CMYK format and that there are no missing image links or fonts. Worldwide has an online artwork upload for your artwork that is too large to email. Check out our How To Guides HERE.
Bleed is the printing that extends to the edge of a sheet or page prior to trimming. Your artwork only requires bleed if it is being printed and trimmed.Â
Files need to be in CMYK format. Should your file be in RGB, you can still supply your file to Worldwide for our Graphic Designers to convert to a print-ready file for a small artwork charge.Â
Images pulled from the web are often low-resolution and do not print well, and there are also copyright procedures to follow. Worldwide graphic designers have access to stock libraries and can source a relevant image for you. Alternatively, you can supply high-resolution imagery from your own stock library.Â
A PDF (Portable Document Format) is a file format that is not suitable for editing, or for creating print-ready files. Industry graphic designers use an Adobe Creative Suite, such as InDesign, which is ideal for creating print-ready artwork. Â
An EPS (Encapsulated Post Script) file is the standard file type for logos. Logos on websites are often JPEG, GIF or PNG which is not recommended for artwork due to their low resolution. It is always best to supply your Worldwide graphic designer with EPS file/s. After all, your logo is your most important brand asset. Â
It is recommended that you send your artwork brief to your Worldwide graphic designer a few days prior to your deadline to ensure you have enough time for you to proof your final artwork.Â
