Upload, approve, receive.
Every order is proofed by a real person before it goes to production. Your ship date is set when your proof is approved, not when your order is placed. Seven steps. One timeline.

Build your order in the configurator.
Choose your product, size, quantity, paper stock, and finish. The price updates live as you make each selection. The ship-date calculator shows you the exact delivery date based on your ZIP code. No surprises after you add to cart.
Upload your file.
Upload your print-ready file (PDF, AI, EPS, PSD, JPG, or PNG). You can also skip the file upload at this stage and add it later from your order page, but the production clock does not start until we have your file. If your file needs adjustment, add the $97 File Prep service and our team handles it.
Approve your proof.
Within one business day of receiving your complete file, you receive a digital proof. Review it. Confirm that the layout, colors, and content look correct. Once you approve, production begins and your order ships within 7 days or less.
We run a preflight check.
Before your file goes to press, our team checks it for common issues: resolution, color mode, bleed, and trim alignment. If we catch something the automated check missed, we reach out. We would rather flag a problem before printing than after.
Your order goes to press.
Production runs on professional offset and digital presses. Your file is printed at the size, stock, and finish you selected. Color is checked against your approved proof.
Quality control and packaging.
Finished pieces are inspected for print defects, color consistency, and trim accuracy before they are packaged for shipping. If anything does not meet spec, it is reprinted before it leaves.
Your order ships, or you pick it up.
Within 7 days or less from proof approval, your order ships to the address you provided, or is ready for local pickup at our Huntington shop if you chose that at checkout. Shipped orders get a tracking number by email. Free shipping on orders over $150. Orders under $150 include a $9.99 handling and packaging fee plus live carrier rates. Local pickup always includes the $9.99 handling fee. Large-format freight items carry a $24.95 surcharge.
What we check before anything prints.
Every order receives a digital proof. Your job is to review the layout, confirm the content, and approve. Our job is to check the file for production issues before it goes to press.
- Resolution: Files under 300 DPI flag before printing.
- Color mode: CMYK required for accurate print color.
- Bleed: Background must extend 0.0625 inch per side beyond the trim line to avoid white edges (0.125 inch per side for booklets and label stocks).
- Trim alignment: Critical content must stay within the safe zone.
If we catch an issue, we tell you before the order prints. We do not print a file we know has a problem and ask you to deal with it on the other end.
