Print Design Services

We will collaborate with you to create strategic and attractive print-based materials to market your department or program.  

Design Process

Please note the following process timeframe depends on the scope of the project request and our current project load. A project manager will personally work with you on a timeline for your job once all content is submitted.

These are generally the steps a project will follow:

  • Log in to Lytho using your Radford University credentials
  • If you only need one deliverable, select the single deliverable form and complete all required fields. If you need more than one deliverable, submit a multi-deliverable request. For detailed instructions on how to submit your project request correctly, please watch the brief tutorial video below.

    Note: in order to better prioritize and manage our workflows, the form has a 3-week lead time for all requests. You may request a rush date, but acceptance of request is subject to review by Marketing and Communication leadership.

  • If your project is submitted correctly with all required content, a project manager will accept your request and assign a designer along with a timeline.
  • You will receive an email from Lytho when your proof is ready for review. You can leave feedback using the integrated proofing platform. For detailed instructions on how to use the proofing system within Lytho, watch this Lytho proofing tutorial.
  • Once you have approved your proof with no further changes, your designer will provide you with a print ready file. You can access your final deliverables in Lytho at any time, with no expiration date.

Printing

Creative Services is now requesting that clients work directly with Printing Services on the production of their materials, unless a project requires use of an outside vendor. Clients can send their print ready files and coordinate with printing on a feasible timeline and budget. If printing encounters any issues with the print file or requires any adjustments to be made for production, Creative Services is happy to help!
