Q
|
Can I use prints or negatives?
|
|

Yes, photographic prints and negatives are acceptable for scanning whether you do it yourself or we do it for you. |
|
|
Q
|
Do I get a color proof before my artwork goes to the printer?
|
|
|
Yes, a color proof will be sent to you for approval before we send it to the printer. You will have an opportunity to make any corrections when you return the proof. If there are no corrections to be made, or you elect to send file directly to the printer after we've made the corrections, you will not receive another proof. If you elect to have another proof sent to you after we've made the corrections, you will receive a laser copy. If you do not sign the proof, we will not be able to print the artwork for you. |
|
|
Q
|
How much room for text do I have on the back?
|
|
|
If you intend for the post cards to be sent through the mail, then you have about 3/4 of the left half of the back for text (area varies for each size card). If you are not intending for your cards to be sent in the mail, almost the entire back of the card may be used for text. We will notify you if there is too much text for the area provided. Please contact us if you have specific questions about the text area. |

Can I supply my own files?
|
