PRINTING PROCESS
- Quality Checks. We may stop your projects production if we notice that the artwork submitted is low resolution, contains errors or does not meet our artwork guidelines. We are not required to do such inspections but we might notice certain defects anyway. If your job is placed on hold, you can either submit new artwork or direct us to send the job to print as-is. We will not be liable for any delays caused by your failure to meet production design requirements. If we do not hear from you within 48 hours on business days, your job will be printed as-is and we will not be liable for any quality losses. Elite Flyers accepts no responsibility for color variations between your submitted print files and the final printed piece.
- Gang Run Printing. Is the process we use to create your prints at substantially discounted prices. One of the downfalls of gang run printing is that we give up the control of an individual piece's color to compensate for the entire run. This does not mean that your colors will be drastically different, but means that your colors can vary slightly, leaving the final piece 95% - 100% accurate.
- Proofing. You must provide at least 300 dpi resolution CMYK color images suited for offset printing. We are not liable for color variation between your proof and the final printed product. It is your responsibility to review your order prior to approving your order to print. EliteFlyers.com will not be responsible for your errors, including but not limited to spelling errors, low resolution artwork, design or color selection errors, wrong options selected (e.g. product type, paper choice, sizes, finishing options), duplicate orders, layout, incorrect shipping address. Please note that screen proofs will predict design layout, text accuracy, image proportions, but not the finished size, color or density.
- Margins. Do not include any important content close to the trim line (the edge of final printed piece). If your artwork extends to the trim line, make sure to include a 1/8” symmetrical bleed (margin) for such designs. EliteFlyers.com allows for a 1/16 tolerance for error with each bindery process, therefore adherence to bleed and caution margins are important to image fidelity. Consider downloading the template from our Site for the product you are ordering and read the accompanying instructions.
- Printing with Borders. Due to the nature of our cutting process, we do not recommend designs with borders. We cannot guarantee your bordered design will be perfectly centered after the cut. If you must print with a border, We suggest adding extra space between the boarder and the edge of your design.
- Two-Sided Printing. You must upload artwork so that the finished piece lines up correctly. For flat, folded and die-cut work, excluding bound products, all pages are set up head to head. The head of a page is defined by the top of the rendered proof and the bottom is called the foot. The head of one side lines up to the head of the other page on a two sided print piece. EliteFlyers.com recommends that you always print laser proofs and line them up head to head to make a folding mockup, which will ensure your artwork is set up properly. You may need to rotate a page after proof review and resubmit art to ensure your pages will line up and print accurately. If you need assistance verifying the orientation of your artwork, please call us prior to placing your order.
- Bound Jobs. All art submitted for bound products must be uploaded as a single, multi-page pdf file. The pages within your submitted pdf should be arranged and sorted in the same order as you want your finished printed product to appear. For example, a 28-page booklet or calendar pdf: page 1 = outside front cover; page 2 = inside front cover; page 3-26 = subsequent pages; page 27 = inside back cover; page 28 = outside back cover. EliteFlyers.com will not be able to proceed with your bound product order unless these minimum requirements are met.
- Color Space Conversion. For predictable and accurate color results EliteFlyers.com recommends that you always use CMYK color space when designing your artwork and save your files without any color profiles embedded within the artwork. EliteFlyers.com is not responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions from RGB to CMYK color modes. For assistance in creating your artwork in CMYK color mode, please contact us.
- Blacks/Rich Black. Full color jobs that contain large solid areas of black ink should have the black set up as CMYK Rich Black (formula: 60%C, 40%M, 40%Y, 100%K). EliteFlyers.com will not be liable for printing a consistent, solid and rich black if artwork is not set up to this specification.
- Color Accuracy. Elite Flyers guarantees that its prints will meet the CMYK printing industry's standard phrase of “respectable color”. Elite Flyers does not offer color matching and we are not liable for color or ink density compared to onscreen proofs approved by a customer. Onscreen proofs predict the artwork layout, bleed, spelling, grammar, image proportion and placement only. Onscreen proofs do not predict the color or color density of any artwork. Please note that due to the nature of our full-color CMYK “gang run” printing process, we do not guarantee color. Elite Flyers will make every effort to print your product as close to the colors your project requires. It is important that you follow our file submission guidelines to ensure an accurate color. The application of any finish or lamination may affect or change the appearance of printed colors. Elite Flyers is not liable for the final appearance of a color or any color shift between your artwork and the final print piece.
- Reprints. We may, at our sole discretion, approve your request for reprint. In the event that you may have received a defective product, send us photos of the error in question to info@eliteflyers.com within 3 business days of receipt of your order. If we decide to approve a reprint, we will ship it to you using the original shipping method. Approved reprints must use the same artwork that was approved by the customer. In the event a customer wants to exchange their files, a new order must be placed.
- Overuns and Underruns. Over-runs or under-runs will not exceed 5%. If a job is short, EliteFlyers.com will prorate the missing quantity in the form of a credit toward future orders. If a job is short 250 pieces or more, EliteFlyers.com may, in its discretion, reprint the missing amount. We run test runs of all projects in the amount of 150-200 sheets. Some of the test run may be included with the printed order.
- Backups. You are solely responsible for creating backup copies of your content. EliteFlyers.com does not guarantee that content uploaded to the Site will be available for future use. EliteFlyers.com will use reasonable efforts to maintain art files and PDF proofs uploaded to the Site for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed a year.
REFUNDS AND CANCELLATIONS
- All sales are final. Cancellations and full refunds are available only if you have not submitted any artwork to our service, approved and paid for your order. In the event you want to cancel your order prior to processing your order for print, EliteFlyers.com will refund your purchase price for any printed portion and/or shipping charges only. There are no refunds for artwork creation, changes, repairs, mailing list updates, and processing fees. All order cancellations must be submitted within 30 days of placing your order. Refund requests made after 30 days, if approved by EliteFlyers.com in its sole discretion, will be issued as a credit toward your next order.
SHIPPING AND ORDER PICKUP
- Unfortunately, we cannot use a customer's shipping account with any carrier. All pricing for international shipments is in U.S. dollars. Our pricing includes product and shipping costs only; customs duties and other costs incurred as a result of international shipping are in addition to our costs and you are separately responsible for these costs. We reserve the right to refuse to ship to certain international locations. Please contact our Shipping Department for more information regarding international shipping.
- Elite Flyers is unable to offer split shipments. If you need to ship to multiple addresses, each address would require their own unique order.
- If a package is not delivered due to a customer refusal (which would include a failure to pick up the product from the carrier, if applicable) or an error made by the customer, e.g., not submitting the proper shipping address, it may cause the package to be reshipped (with the corrected address if applicable), and you will be charged an additional shipping fee for this reshipment. You may also incur additional fees as a result of the inability of the carrier to deliver the order, as card card-body as return fees. Even if you decline to have a product reshipped, you will continue to be responsible for the product cost, original shipping and any additional fees incurred as a result of the product being returned, and you consent to these fees being charged against the credit card used for the transaction.
- If, after placing an order, you wish to change the shipping address you may do so up until the time the order is out for delivery. Each time that you request that we intercept and transport an order to a new shipping address (i.e., other than the one currently chosen) you will incur an administrative fee of at least eighteen dollars and fifty cents ($18.50) as card card-body as any increases in the shipping fees and other charges the shipping carrier may impose. You consent to these fees and charges being charged against the credit card used for the transaction.
- We will make every effort to adhere to the estimated shipping schedule and delivery date for your order. However, equipment failures, technical problems, shipping delays and other problems beyond our control may delay the printing and delivery process. Under such circumstances rush charges and other production fees may be waived or refunded as applicable, however, such delays are not grounds for cancellation of an order. By placing an order on this site you are agreeing that we are not responsible or liable for, and no refund, cancellation or credit will be due as a result of shipping company delays, acts of God, weather conditions, environmental or dangerous goods incidents, perils of the air, public enemies, public authorities acting with actual or apparent authority, acts or omissions of customs officials, authority of law, quarantine, riots, strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns, or other labor disputes or disturbances, civil commotions or hazards incident to a state of war, local or national disruptions in ground or air transportation networks or systems due to events beyond our control, disruption or failure of communication and information systems, disruption or failure of utilities, international customs issues, any other circumstances that are beyond our direct control.
