Valued Customers

A lot of graphic files we are receiving lately from our customers do not meet the specifications required to go to press without spending valuable time fixing and or trying to explain to our customers what is required for them to print without any problems.

To make this as simple as possible we need to have the following procedure put in place. First make sure you use one of the acceptable programs listed below, then make sure you follow the instructions in points 1 through 5 exactly. If any of the 5 points are missing there will be a minimum charge of $25 if we need to start evaluating the files.

A separate quote will be given if more work then the $25 is required.

Thank you... The Management
