Pricing & Extra Charges for Stationery you’ll be proud of!

Available Extras & Additional Charges - Description and Pricing
Photographs	15.00 each Photographs must be screened in order to print by offset lithography. The photograph charge includes reproducing, on one order, a photograph with a halftone screen positioned according to your layout. We normally scan photographs and create the halftones electronically. Like prescreened art, final quality is affected by the dot structure of the halftone. Photos lacking contrast between facial features, hair, clothing, and the background will not print well. Production Requirements: To insure quality reproduction, we will make the halftone from your black and white continuous tone photograph. Halftones can be produced from color photographs, however due to lack of contrast in a colored photograph, we cannot guarantee the quality of the halftone. NOTE: Photographs you supply should be no more than three (3) times the size you want printed. Wallet size or smaller is preferred. Thermography on halftones tends to make photographs appear coarse or mottled. To insure quality reproduction, all photographs and halftones are examined by our Art Department. If there is a problem, you will be contacted. WE WILL NOT assume responsibility for any lost of damaged customer photograph.
Close Registration	10.00 per unit Close Registration is when any two colors of ink are closer than 1/32 of a inch. All color separations are done electronically. Stock logos are made to be printed in one color, but can be changed to print in two colors. See Custom Logos below. Limitations: A. We cannot guarantee intricate registration between ink and foil. B. Since ink and foil are applied on two different presses there is always the possibility of slight movement between the ink and foil registration within a run. For this reason, we require at least 1/32" (2 points) space between ink and foil copy on business cards.
Bleeds	Not available
Cancellation of an Order	10.00 Regular Stationery per unit 15.00 Foil Stationery per unit A cancellation is stopping your order and taking it out of production after it has been started.

Changes to an Order in Production	6.00 Regular Stationery per unit 10.00 Foil Stationery per unit If your job is in production, the service charge includes locating your order, making the change, and returning your order to production. An order not received or an order “on hold” but not printed, is NOT considered “in production.” As with all changes, we guarantee to make the change if the order has not been printed. Production Requirements: You must phone, fax, or e-mail your change request so your job can be taken out of production quickly. Some changes may be too complex to take over the telephone and we will require you to provide new written copy, but you must request the change by phone, fax or e-mail, not by letter.

Production Tolerances & Variations	QUANTITY VARIANCE: Quantities are plus/minus 3% of finished quantity are considered complete.

RECYCLED PAPERS: Recycled paper meets E.P.A. specifications for recycled paper. As with all recycled products, paper imperfections and color/finish variations from run to run are to be expected. REGISTRATION TOLERANCE BETWEEN INK AND FOIL: Since ink and foil are applied on two different presses, there is always the possibility of slight movement between the ink and foil registration within a run. For this reason, we require at least 1/32" (2 points) space between ink and foil copy on orders. MARGINS: Standard Letterhead margins are 5/8" margin at the top with 1/2" on the sides and 1/4" on the bottom. The minimum distance allowable from the top of the paper to the printing is 3/8" and on the sides and bottom is approximately 1/4". Standard Envelope margins are 3/8" margin on all sides. The minimum distance allowable is 3/8" from the left edge and 1/4" from any other edge for thermography and flat printed envelopes. We must have 3/8" margin on all sides if foil stamped.
