If you use spot colors, please specify the PMS number(s) or the color matching system used.
Art Services
Our graphics department is very skilled. If we can do a “quick fix” on your logo or other artwork, we’ll do so without charge. However, if your artwork does not conform to industry standards and we can’t do a quick fix, we will notify you of any additional charges.
Hourly rate: US$75/hour. US$75 minimum charge.

Proofs
We supply a digital “PDF” proof by e-mail. Please note that a PDF proof is not 100% color accurate. A PDF is used to check placement of art elements and to give an idea of color.
Client “Sign-Off”
We will send you a proof for each job. PLEASE REVIEW THIS PROOF VERY CAREFULLY. We will also ask you to “Sign-Off” on either the e-mailed PDF proof by return e-mail, or with a written signature on a paper proof. Once you “Sign-Off,” ALL responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the artwork transfers to you. We will not go to press without this “Sign-Off.”
Color Matching
Please note that printing on plastic is different from printing on paper. Expect variations of up to one shade when using colored inks.
