Moveable makes it easy!
Moveable was founded in 1983 and has grown steadily since then,
establishing a reputation for professionalism, thoughtful
attention to detail and a strong commitment to serving its
clients. Today the company operates around the clock out of a
landmark 21,000-square-foot loft space in Toronto€™s downtown
west district, and employs 55 people.
Its prepress and scanning divisions offer a full range of
services, including conventional drum scans, Photo CD scans,
colour editing and image retouching, trapping, imposition and
film separations, and a variety of digital and analog proofing
options. Recent projects include advertising for Smirnoff and

The company€™s digital printing division features a Heidelberg
Quickmaster DI press, two Xerox DocuColors, a DocuPrint black-
and-white printer and an in-house bindery. The poster division
includes three large-format inkjet plotters and offers rapid
production of digital colour posters for indoor and outdoor
point-of-sale, event marketing and signage.
Typesetting is alive and well at Moveable, and the company
offers production services for a wide variety of print projects.
Its innovative proofreading and typographic fine-tuning service
refines designer-formatted pages to ensure that the final
document is error-free and meets the highest typographic
standards. Its rigorous proofreading process has also been used
prior to major Web launches to ensure accuracy and consistency.

the past 12 months alone has handled typesetting, proofreading
and copy editing on more than 40 annual reports, including those
