Label Design with extra TLC

Artwork Preparation for clinical labels

Very detailed label design is a routine activity at BCL.

We use "asymmetrical" software to make sure that when we lay your text into a new art format,
we don't add or subtract anything. With foreign languages, particularly those based on symbols, it's easy to make a
mistake such as omitting an accent mark or adding a mark like a period. This kind of simple mistake may change the
meaning of the sentence. Our checks guarantee that you get back exactly what you gave us..no more...no less. 

Our Artwork Preparation service guarantees that your label files meet production requirements while maintaining brand consistency and regulatory standards. We work with your team to ensure every file is press-ready.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in artwork preparation for clinical labels?

Artwork preparation includes converting your Word file or text content into a press-ready label layout with proper bleed, barcode generation, color setup, and regulatory alignment.

What file format should I submit for artwork?

We prefer a Microsoft Word file as your starting point. We handle all conversion to press-ready format as part of our artwork preparation service.

How long does artwork preparation take?

Proofs are typically ready in 2–3 business days from receipt of your text file, depending on label complexity and project scope.

Do you verify barcode accuracy during artwork preparation?

Yes. All barcodes are generated and verified as part of our artwork preparation process. We also verify the proof against your supplied text file using validated software.

How many rounds of proof revisions are included?

We work with you through as many revisions as needed to reach an approved proof before going to press.
