PROOFING & MATCHING

Once the order has been placed, the final print-ready artwork along with the job specification sheet will be sent to customers via email. Customers are responsible for reviewing all details mentioned in the specification sheet, including but not limited to, delivery dates and or production speed, and confirming that all the customer requirements have been accurately noted. Artsy Packaging is not liable for any specifications and requirements beyond what is noted in the final specification sheet. In addition, it is the responsibility of the customer to review the final artwork proof as proofreading is the responsibility of the customer. Due to the multiple ways that files are prepared, unplanned changes can occur. What is shown on the final proof represents what will be printed. Artsy Packaging strongly recommends that the proof is printed out at 100% to check actual position, spelling, and other design elements. Artsy Packaging will not be responsible for any design or spelling issues that are not identified by the customer and communicated to Artsy Packaging immediately. Upon approval, the clients’ print job specifications are forwarded to our production team as is.
Artsy Packaging is not liable for colour matching or ink density on digital proofs approved by the customers. Digital proofs predict design layout, text accuracy, image proportion, and alignment, but not colour or density. Artsy Packaging will try to match the gradient density of each colour in duotone. Artsy Packaging is not liable for the final appearance of a duotone unless the customer orders a colour match proof. In addition, please note the application of lamination may affect or change the appearance of the printed colours. Artsy Packaging is not liable for the final colour appearance of a laminated product/s.

MATERIALS

Please note that the paper/card stock used for printing our products is not food grade. However, if you have a certain requirement about certification, please feel free to ask.

COLOR ACCURACY

Artsy Packaging will reproduce colour from submitted print-ready files as closely as possible. However, Artsy Packaging cannot guarantee colour match and colour density because of limitations in the printing processes, different properties of various printing surfaces, as well as neighbouring image ink requirements. The accuracy of colour reproductions is guaranteed to be within 90% of the final proof you approved. Please note that Artsy Packaging can only guarantee colour reproduction for your print-ready files if you order a hardcopy proof for an additional charge. Please note that Artsy Packaging is not responsible for colour variations between submitted print-ready images and the actual artwork or product they represent

 

Note: Artsy Packaging is not liable for any colour variations between a digitally printed sample and an offset printed sample.

Artsy Packaging may offer free hardcopy proofing for orders above the value of £2,500.

Please note it is not possible to make any changes in the design and size once the process is started. In case of any changes, additional charges may apply based on the nature of the job. In case a customer wants to add hard copy sampling to the order, the amount paid will be only for a one-time setup. In the case of the second sample, an additional amount will be applicable.
