To keep our online prices as competitive as possible most of our products are printed in CMYK as this is the best value therefore we cannot offer colour matching online.

All our delivery charges featured on the website are for delivery to one UK mainland address. If you are interested in international delivery please call us or email us with the details of your job for current international delivery rates.
15. Can I change / add a shipping address?
If you originally specified that you wish to collect your goods from our store for free, you may add a delivery charge and shipping address at any stage of your order. However if you need to change an existing shipping address, this can only be done before your order is prepared for shipment. Please contact us for more information or to check the status of your order.
Artwork
16. How do I get artwork to you?
The most convenient way is to upload your artwork during the online order process when prompted. However if you are unable to upload artwork at this stage, feel free to send us your artwork files by email stating your order number clearly on the email. Alternatively, if you are able to, you are welcome to drop your artwork in to our store on CD or memory stick.
17. How do I set up my artwork?
Please see our file setup guide for details of how to supply your files to us. Call or email us and we’ll be happy to explain anything that is unclear. If you are able to supply your files as specified, there are no extra charges to your order other than those added during the ordering process. If you are unable to supply files as specified there may be extra charges to make sure your artwork will print as expected. Don’t worry; these will be discussed with you before we begin any work.
18. What file formats do you support?
We prefer raw files from design software such as Indesign, Adobe Illustrator or Quark Xpress as well as high-res print ready PDFs. Photoshop is also acceptable but can pixelise text. We can also except PC files such as Word, Publisher and PowerPoint but these may need some artwork time spent on them to make them print ready. If you are unsure whether we can use your files we’d be happy to advise you.
19. Can I see a proof of my order first?
Our design charges include your first proof. This can be viewed as a PDF by email or you can come into our store to see a hard copy. If you have supplied print ready files but still wish to see a proof, this may be chargeable. Please note that depending on the print process used, your proof may not be colour accurate. If you wish to see a ‘press proof’ please contact us for more details.
Payment
20. Can I open a credit account?
To keep our online prices as competitive as possible, at present we do not offer credit accounts on online orders.
21. What methods of payment do you accept and how do I pay?
There are several methods of payment we accept. You can pay by credit or debit card online or by phone. You could also pay by BACS transfer or post a cheque.
