M-REAL LAUNCHES COMPLETE GALERIE PAPERS SAMPLE SYSTEM

The sample system complements the printed dummy service available from M-real. The same printed sheets can be bound according to a customer’s specifications to produce a dummy magazine that feels, weighs and handles as closely as possible to the finished article.

“Designing pages for the Galerie Papers sample system was an interesting challenge,” says Mike McClafferty. “My aim was to produce the sort of sample book that I would like to use when choosing paper for my publications. As a result, excellent photography combined with magazine-style design and layout is at the heart of the printed sample pages.”

Each swatchbook in the sample system contains bound eight-page sections printed with the same imagery on each basis weight per Galerie Papers grade – Galerie Lite, Galerie Brite, Galerie One, Galerie Fine and Galerie Art. This allows for comparison between weights as well as finishes. All the printed pages are reproduced using specific Galerie ICC profiles, and the brochures also contain technical specification tables. There are five different printed cover paper grade options in either Galerie Art or Galerie One.
