Although we started offering these services in 2005, most of them are tasks that, when you need them done, you need them NOW and, today, machines can do (almost) all of it ...

You no longer have to do much fiddling with paper (though a decent LASER printer* can be helpful), or scurry to and from your local copy shop, or convince an expensive professional web designer why your ideas are (cough) better than hers.  A decent camera (or your high-end cell phone) can capture great photos (if you have a working knowledge of perspective and lighting), and there are oodles of photo editing apps.

If automated spelling and grammar correction seem too tedious, you can command the LLM AI (Large Language Model Artificial Intelligence) that's built into modern browsers to eloquently expound on almost any topic - and the output will often appear accurate (and might be) - and draw (almost) anything you can describe in a "few" words (or more).  About that, we'll just say this: there is none of that in this website.

Need a website?  You can create a simple one - or at least the appearance of one - for free from some providers - hopefully you don't mind a few of their advertisements mixed in with your content.  For the price of a domain name and hosting from several legitimate web-hosts, you can use automagical site-builder software (WYSIWYG, drag-n-drop) to create a real website complete with blog, database, email, gallery, search optimization, and shopping cart, all without knowing how any of it works.  You should think about that last part because hackers think about it constantly.

* About printers:  You may be one of those people who have good luck with ink-jet printers; i.e., you print something every hour or day (or week), so the ink cartridges don't dry out and clog.  Ink-jet printers are cheap because their branded ink cartridges are expensive because they get used up (or dried out) quickly.  Get a LASER printer: their toner cartridges are even more expensive, but they last a very long time and, if you don't print anything for a year, they should still print reliably.

Please limit your printing as much as possible because the cartridges and ink are usually toxic and not biodegradable.

Having been in the "print on demand" business for a few years, we've learned much about paper stocks, copy quality, layouts, methods, and cost.  There are two kinds of copy shops.

One will sell you bad to mediocre copies of whatever you brought in, without the least suggestion that a few minor (and usually free) tweaks could improve the output.

Others will recommend as many expensive add ons and upgrades as you'll buy.  Who knows?  Maybe you do need gold plated yard sale flyers - regardless of the misspelled words.

Grammar, Punctuation, Spelling ...

Patience, and being a "detail oriented" technician, may not be your thing.  Many people just never got a "round tu-it":  modern life is hectic and distractions abound.

... Proofing, Layout & Paste-Ups, Photos, Scans

Once in a while, you just need a letter typed nicely, or your own literary effort proof-read, or a layout and color scheme which best survives the copy process at the best price.

We'll help you add impact to your ad, bring important features to the fore, and include photos.

Graphics & Web:

We offer support for graphics and DHTML (CSS, HTML, and JavaScript).  Though we aren't master graphic or web designers, we can improve your existing HTML based pages:

Don't have a website?  We'll build a DHTML site for you inexpensively.

Don't want a website?  We can add your small business or charity to our BusinessDirect listings, or create and host your own separate page.

LauverSystems.com is hand built (without automagical coding software), and represents our current state of these arts.  It's compatible with the Brave, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Internet Explorer (← not secure), Opera, Safari, Vivaldi, Waterfox, Yandex, and other browsers.

We do not handle hard-copy mastering, large format, or offset printing.
