WELCOME

2016

Welcome to the 29th annual Florida Print Awards, a celebration that showcases the outstanding printing work created by our members. We are thankful to all that participated in this year’s competition.

The judges were once again very impressed with the print quality of this years’ pieces. Their job of choosing the best was proven to be a very difficult task.

Florida printers were also successful on a national scale in the Printing Industries of America Premier Print Awards contest. 43 entries by 18 companies won awards. Associated Printing Productions, Inc, Designers’ Press, Progressive Communications and The Color Express won the prestigious Best of Category “Benny Award.”

We would also like to thank our generous sponsors of the trophy awards for their continued support of PAF.

Thank you for joining us as we celebrate printing excellence in the state of Florida. We proudly display your quality work in this winners booklet and in the Hall of Winners.

START GETTING READY NOW FOR THE

2017 FLORIDA PRINT AWARDS

As you look forward to participating in the 2016 competition, we offer the following suggestions to make it easier for you to enter:

• Gather and carefully examine a job immediately upon completion. Don’t wait until you receive your annual “Call for Entries” and then go to your sample area to see what is available. By setting aside samples throughout the year, as jobs are completed, you can be sure you are within the dates of production to qualify.

• Set aside four or five samples of a potential entry.

• Have a “qualified” person or committee examine the pieces to see if they meet competition standards.

• Secure these potential entries in a location that is strictly hands-off to everyone.

• When entry time arrives, review what category or categories into which the piece should be entered. It is not unusual for a given piece to qualify for entry into several different categories, thus increasing the potential for it to receive an award or multiple awards.

Good luck! We look forward to seeing you at the awards banquet next year!
