Viewing Your Proofs

The purpose of the proof is to give you one last chance to review the design for overall accuracy and completeness of the design components before it goes to print. What you see in your proof is what will go to print - so anything that you do not correct in the proofing stage will be present in the finished product.

IMPORTANT: View your .PDF proofs with Adobe Acrobat and ensure the “Overprint Preview” function is turned on.

Proof Approvals

It is the sole responsibility of the client to review all details of the supplied proof(s), which includes (but is not limited to) layout/design, page sequencing, dimensions, spelling, and punctuation.

By providing an approval in writing the client indemnifies and holds CDman free from responsibility and liability for any errors or omissions in the proofs that are not found and corrected by the client. Furthermore, the client acknowledges that the reworking and/or reprinting of materials due to client error is at the sole expense of the client. Such costs will be formally quoted in writing and must be approved by the client in writing before any additional work can take place.

In order to proceed with production the client must submit written approval of the proofs via fax or e-mail. A specific and clearly worded approval is required. Verbal approval cannot be accepted.

Artwork Revisions and/or Changes

Client-supplied artwork/design files are considered to be received in ‘final form’. This means they are ready to manufacture as supplied with no need for modification. Revisions, modifications or the re-supply of files *may* cause the following:

• A delay in the start of your order.
• A delay in completing your order – even if there is a ‘deadline’ date for your order.
• Extra charges.

Note: One round of pre-flight (checking your supplied files to make sure they meet our specifications) and Electronic (.PDF) proofs are included in your quoted price. To request changes or to re-supply design/artwork files *after* receiving your proofs means that a new round of pre-flight and Electronic proofs must take place. Due to the work involved a $35 fee will be charged for *each* new round of pre-flight and Electronic proofs (except in instances where the required change is due to our error in generating the proof).
