Missed a company wide book printing deadline and had to print multiple copies of a book with a tight turnaround, Mark was extremely helpful every step of the way and allowed the books to get to us ASAP. The books were cheaper than the... original printing fee from the company's publisher. Would definitely recommend!read more

I wrote a memoir to leave my grandchildren, three of whom were born after my wife passed away. This was a labour of love for me and it was very important that this was preserved in a permanent form. My interaction with TLAC was... extremely smooth even when my contact left the company part way through the process. The recommendations made to accommodate my material resulted in a book that I am proud to share with my family. Editing was easy and timing exceeded expectations. Great experience all around.read more

I needed to print a book in memory of my father. My experience with TLAC from beginning to end was professional, prompt, and truly exceeded my expectations. Mark Lacaria handles my inquiry and was always courteous and clear. My book... included lots of graphics and the end product was beautiful and I was very satisfied. Everything from order to delivery was 100% satisfactory. The whole process took place around Christmas/New Year time, yet Mark assured me that I will receive my books on the date agreed upon. The quality of the books was truly impressive, and I am delighted to have found such a good and reliable printing company. Thank you!read more

I needed my academic poster printed quickly, and TLAC was wonderful! They emailed me back quickly and started to process my poster right away. Even more, after I had paid, they offered to print on a higher quality material as they... believed the colours of my poster would benefit from it. Definitely recommend!read more

If I had an option to give 10 stars to TLAC, I’d gladly do so. I needed to print my comic zine to attend a local comic festival. I was going to use another local company but I happened to know Mark and decided to go with them right away... because for one, he is the coolest guy and he explained that TLAC has a lot of experience in printing big comic books. I’m not going to lie; the timeline was pretty tight. But the turn-out was incredibly quick and precise. In and out, they walked me through the printing process promptly and made sure each important point nailed down before proceeding to the next step. The outcome was amazing. We used high-res png files for this project. And I know in my experience that the printed colour can be inaccurate or ugly with png (png is originally intended for web-use, not print-use) depending on the print shop you use. When I make my books (I’m a published author in Japan), colour-check is a big part of the whole process. They did a fantastic job in such short notice. It was so fantastic that the organizer of the comic festival and other artists asked me which print shop I used. I’d recommend TLAC to anybody anytime. I honestly think I would ever use other print shops for my comic/comic related project again.read more

First and foremost the print quality is fantastic. They suggested some paper types and I went with it for my magazine. Was very satisfied. They worked with me on a price, and ultimately got all my magazines printed for a very reasonable... price. Very happy with the result and customer serviceread more

It's nice to know we still have a reliable high-quality self- publishing press. Mike, was very patient with my 81-years-old demands and idiosyncrasies. TLAC did an excellent job, on time, and with patience. I am going to them again with... my next book. Keep up the good works.read more

Dear Mike, I want to thank you for the BEAUTIFUL job you did on the St. Basil book for the Basilian Fathers. I took one of the newly bound books over to one of the priests in our retirement facility. He was overjoyed to see the new... binding and was very pleased to have his own copy of the “new” book. He told me “Having this book in my possession makes me want to read it again … and I shall do that.” Mike, working with you is a pleasure. You all have done several jobs for me over the past few years. Always, the cost is reasonable and the work is first class. .read more

This has been our third year printing festival materials with TLAC Toronto for our organization and I can honestly say that the quality of product and service that the TLAC Team offers is phenomenal. We're so appreciative of Mark & the... TLAC Team for being so understanding about our time constraint and were consistently communicating with us all updates in a very prompt manner. They were immensely professional and handled our order with care and precision. We cannot thank them enough for being such a friendly group & we look forward to working with them again in the future!read more

Family histories need quality printing and advice to pass muster with your mother & siblings. I just received 13 very high quality 150 page books with a linen hardcover in 3 weeks, at a much better price than their competitors. Great... picture quality! Thank you Mike Pietrobon of TLACread more

I would not go anywhere else. The service and excellent contributions to a sensitive government document, made this painless. SUPERIOR. I would give ten stars out of five.

I was worried about my honours thesis poster getting done in before the weekend, and the TLAC definitely saved my day! My poster was done within 3 hours, the quality was perfect, and the staff were incredibly helpful! Although they are... more expensive than my university's printing cost, it was worth it! Something that matters a lot to me is a quick response time, which they did really well with.read more

Absolutely AMAZING service. TLAC were complete life savers. They turned around a poster of the highest quality in only a few hours. Mark is a wizard of poster-making with a super-human level of responsiveness. The entire group was... incredibly polite, courteous, and helpful. I can’t recommend them highly enough!!!read more

I used TLAC to help me print a family history and was very pleased with the result. From start to finish, they were highly professional and responsive in guiding me through the process. It was very helpful to be able to meet with the... book's designer, Mike, in person several times on the way through. His creativity was integral to the quality of the overall product, which resulted in both a hard cover and soft cover version. I would highly recommend TLAC to anyone undertaking a similar project.
