Full job description

Prepress Technician — PCL Graphics Markham, ON · Full-time · Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM

About the Role

PCL Graphics is a large-format printing and graphics engineering company with over 40 years of production experience. We work on demanding commercial projects — architectural graphics, retail environments, fleet graphics, wayfinding systems, and specialty signage — and we're looking for a detail-oriented Prepress Technician to join our team.

This is a hands-on production role. You'll be responsible for preparing and optimizing artwork files for output across a wide range of substrates and print processes. If you have a strong eye for detail, thrive in a fast-moving production environment, and live in Adobe Illustrator, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Receive, review, and prepare client-supplied artwork for large-format digital output
Set up files for production in Adobe Illustrator with correct bleed, trim, and colour profiles
Perform colour management and output preparation, including soft-proofing
Identify and correct common artwork issues: low resolution, RGB-to-CMYK conversion, font errors, overprints, and spot colour conflicts
Communicate file issues and corrections with account managers and clients professionally
Prepare cut contour paths and variable data layouts as needed
Maintain organized file naming, job folders, and version control
Support press operators with file handoff and output verification
Adapt artwork for multi-panel installations, tiling, and seam alignment

What You Bring

Advanced proficiency in Adobe Illustrator — this is the core tool of the role
Working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Acrobat / PDF preflight
Strong understanding of colour theory, ICC profiles, and colour space management
Experience with InDesign is an asset
2+ years of prepress, reprographics, or production design experience in a print environment
Post-secondary training in Graphic Design, Print Technology, or equivalent hands-on experience
Comfortable working to tight deadlines in a high-volume production environment
High attention to detail — able to catch file issues before they reach the press

Why PCL Graphics

Established company with 40+ years in the industry — stable, well-equipped facility
Exposure to a wide variety of substrates, applications, and production methods
Collaborative team environment with experienced operators and account staff
Markham location — convenient for GTA east and York Region candidates
