What money making machines they are. No quality control anywhere, we're in the 21st century and they can't get software with a consistent font?, I wonder just how much money is made from these so called errors, too much for them to put things right I expect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322543472485475876.post-72632658948467106802012-06-07T04:35:38.700-12:002012-06-07T04:35:38.700-12:00i like your post nicei like your post niceAndyhttp://fourseasonnews.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322543472485475876.post-81973718068264331452012-06-07T01:26:40.240-12:002012-06-07T01:26:40.240-12:00@ Anonymous
Writing about Post and Go font errors...@ Anonymous<br /><br />Writing about Post and Go font errors in the same context as poorly registered litho printings by Walsall is fatuous.<br /><br />As you know, the text on the Faststamps is generated by the in-branch machines which are under the control of Post Office Ltd, not Royal Mail Stamps.Ian - Norvichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436130277706268046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322543472485475876.post-84309245984739536622012-06-06T20:12:22.725-12:002012-06-06T20:12:22.725-12:00It's foolish not to believe that all these ...It's foolish not to believe that all these 'errors' are deliberate. If not then these so called professional printing organisations should be canned by the Royal Mail and real professional printers hired. I noted that two recent Post and Go issues were issued with font errors within days of each other, so what do we have here a company that has no quality control or company fueling the error market to make money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322543472485475876.post-21599377555889143692012-06-06T05:54:59.915-12:002012-06-06T05:54:59.915-12:00Not really about the phosphor displacement but who...Not really about the phosphor displacement but who actually printed this prestige stamp book and by what printing process.<br />The credits on the inside back cover states the book was printed by Walsall. However, the FSC number on the back cover belongs to Cartor. Now I know that Walsall own Cartor but it would be useful to know who printed the stamp panes.<br />I was lead to beleive that Walsall here in the UK print in gravure but Cartor in France only have litho presses. Some time ago I remember reading somewhere that prestige stamp books were going to be printed in lithography because this process is much cheaper that gravure and with shorter print runs on PSB it made it more economical.<br />Can anyone throw some light on this subject?Brian Morrisnoreply@blogger.com
