Policies

ARTWORK

The client will deliver at his/her own expense to APGI artwork to be used in this production. The client warrants that he/she is the copyright holder of the original artwork or has obtained authorization from the copyright holder to reproduce the original artwork presented to APGI for usage. All originals, photographs, artwork used in the production of this project shall become the property of APGI until the job is complete. APGI does not assume and hereby disclaim any liability to any part of the client's artwork, content and/or manuscript.

CLIENT SUPPLIED ARTWORK

While clients are free to provide their own artwork for print, it is the client's responsibility to ensure that all artwork is designed with the appropriate bleeds and margins if the design contains borders, colors or images that will run past the edge of the final printed product.

We will notify the client if their artwork does not contain bleeds and margins prior to placing the job into production.  The client must decide if they wish to correct their artwork, proceed with printing or have APGI correct the artwork for a fee.  APGI is not responsible for errors in the final printed product, where the cleint-supplied artwork did not contain the appropriate bleeds and/or margins and the client decided to proceed with the print job.

Client-supplied artwork without the proper bleeds and margins and requiring additional processing during the production process will be assessed an additional fee, depending upon the labor required to ensure the correctness of the job.

PROOFS AND CORRECTIONS

Despite the greatest attention to color correction on the computer screen, the final output to the paper requires printing proofs to assure color quality in the final edition. However, because every printer is different, when going to press, APGI guarantees color quality at approximately 90%.
 
APGI will provide up to two (2) proofs as a part of the printing process. Additional revisions  made after the second proof will be assessed a $25.00 fee.  Any changes made after we go to the impose stage will be assessed an additional fee (price determined per the job).
 
The client will approve the final proof which shall be considered the bon-a-tirer (BAT). APGI is not responsible for errors under the following conditions: work that's printed per Customer's OK; if changes are communicated verbally; if Customer failed to return proof with corrections; if additional corrections are submitted after the proof has been returned; or if Customer instructed APGI to proceed without submission of a proof.
 
We cannot stress this enough:  When a customer APPROVES a proof, if there are mistakes in that proof, even if there are mistakes that the printer made, those mistakes are NOT the responsibility of the printer.  We give you a proof in order to check ALL work, yours and ours.  So please, look over your proof CAREFULLY.  We CANNOT reprint any orders if mistakes in the finished work WERE ALSO IN THE PROOF.  This policy is not unique to APGI, it is universally accepted by printers everywhere.  We want you to be happy with your project, so please, take time to look over your proof thoroughly before approving it.
 
By proceeding with order signoff you are verifying that the material delivered to you by Anointed Press Graphics, Inc. is correct and would like it to be printed immediately.
