1.) Positional Proof - this proof is usually a laser or inkjet run off which we can only use for positional accuracy.  Positional proofs cannot be used for colour matching.

2.) Colour Matching - if you send a match print or other hard copy printed material (i.e. letterhead, brochure) we will check your file prior to printing.  If we cannot achieve a reasonable match, we will call you to discuss.  It is not always possible to match pantone colours using CMYK printers.  Our printers and media are carefully calibrated but if no colour proof is provided we can only print what is supplied on disk.

3.) Please make sure that the artwork files you send match our specification.  We cannot be held responsible for errors that occur resulting from artwork supplied that does not meet our specification and reserve the right to charge for any remedial work prior to printing.  Correct artwork means no additional charges or time delays.
