ARTWORK APPROVAL POLICY
 

We make a strong daily effort to expedite all orders through every stage of production and since it all begins with Artwork, we have a few strict non-negotiable rules we must enforce in order to be as efficient and cost effective for everyone we do business with.

By confirming your artwork is “Approved” (see “special note” below) you acknowledge to be informed of the rules we enforce and agree with your role in the process and procedures of reviewing your order proof(s).
(SPECIAL NOTE: All approvals must be made in writing via email, fax or with your authorized signature if made in person. No approvals will be honored or valid if made in any other way or form such as verbally in person or over the phone).

An approved design is no longer eligible for any further edits, changes or modifications to job characteristics or turnaround time. If the product will be converted in a special way to be completed (such as packaging or a special die cut order for custom boxes) Print Agent will make sure the product converts to its intended shape when completed. There is no grace period for changes after you give us your approval so take special care and be sure you review your preview proof in every way it can be tested and/or examined.

If product is rendered unusable due to overlooked errors, mistakes or anomalies including but not limited to: text, spelling, grammar, graphics, size, color and aesthetics you agree to be solely responsible for paying for the entire amount of the print job along with applicable taxes and shipping/handling fees, unless otherwise noted (this includes errors made exclusively by Print Agent even though you may have provided true and correct information). Don’t assume errors cannot be made because you’re sure you provided accurate notes to Print Agent. Someone still has to physically create a custom product and enter your data by hand into a computer system leaving an open opportunity for Murphy’s Law to exist. So you agree that it’s ultimately up to you to make sure your products are produced as requested.

Providing your own artwork is also possible and can help expedite the order process. The same proofing process remains in effect even though it is your own artwork. We find it is best to be sure the files you provide did not change/corrupt from its original version you remember viewing. There are a number of things that can happen when submitting your files electronically over the web like corrupted design (changed or altered look) from its intended style and layout. This mostly happens with custom downloaded fonts used in the design. Files which were created by word processing applications like the ones included in Microsoft Office Suite: Word, Publisher, Power Point, Excel, etc. also get red flagged often. This does not mean we will not accept those file types but we do make a point to make you aware of those situations. We always recommend PDF as a preferred file type for submitting your own artwork.

The sole reason for this strict policy is derived from our diligent effort to expedite production on all orders as prompt and efficient service is what we’re known and strive for. PLEASE READ AND EXAMINE YOUR ENTIRE PROOF CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU APPROVE & GIVE GREEN LIGHT TO PROCEED with print production.
