POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
PAYMENT OPTIONS - We accept Visa,
Master Card, American Express, Paypal, Company Checks, and Cash. Payment
arrangements must be made prior to production. A late fee of $25 will be
assessed on any account that is "Past Due". Credit terms are available
to qualified customers with established references in the industry.
ARTWORK GUIDELINES - Supplied
artwork should be emailed to us using the "submit
artwork" link, or supplied on disc. We use Adobe CS3 or lower for
PC or MAC, Corel Draw version X4 or lower. Please convert text to curves
to avoid font problems. If an exact color match is required, please indicate
Pantone colors, otherwise we will do our best to match your colors. For
example, red can also be called brick, rose, bright, pale, blood, orange-tint
and any other number of adjectives. If you supply us with names other than
PMS colors, then you assume that our interpretation of your color is correct.
This also goes where we are required to match colors from a computer screen.
There is a degree of inaccuracy in this method and we assume no responsibility
for inaccurate matches. Given the opportunity and time, we will be happy
to provide a pre-production proof. Please also fax in a hard copy of your
signed artwork. Do not send us your only copy of any original art. We will
be happy to create or modify art supplied to fit printing needs. Art charges
are $75 per hour. First 2 proofs included in every order, after
that art changes will be billed at our hourly rate with a $10 minimum per
change. No order will be released to production without artwork approval.
A preproduction sample may be available on most products for additional
charges. Call us for details.

2% of the goods extra. As we strive to make sure your goods are not damaged,
we cannot guarantee goods to be flawless on 100% of any order. Subtle flaws

may cause damage.
RUSH ORDERS - All rush orders are subject to rush charges. We reserve the
right to refuse any order for any reason. Production times are 2 weeks
