2.0 TERMS OF SERVICE
2.1 PROOFING YOUR DESIGN/RESPONSIBILITY
A digital proof will be provided of your design(s) for you, the client, to ensure the accuracy of your design and to obtain your final approval. You may request as many changes and/or corrections to your design as you see fit until your final approval. Brochure Builders will revise the design based on your revision requests and provide new proof. Ultimately you, the client, have full approval power and agree to full responsibility for proofreading every aspect of your design. You, the client, agree to full responsibility for the accuracy of the design which includes but is not limited to; spelling, grammar, capitalization, images and photographs, color accuracy, print quantity, and paper size. Brochure Builders is not responsible for any errors (typos, misspellings, etc.) discovered in your printed product that was present on the proof you, the client, approved. Your approval of any proof is accepted in any combination of 3 ways; 1. Clicking MAKE DECISION and selecting APPROVED in our online proofing program. 2. By stating in writing your approval in any email communication to Brochure Builders, or 3. By making a final payment to Brochure Builders of the specific deliverable in question.
2.2 COLOR MATCHING POLICY
Brochure Builders prints our products using a CMYK, Gang Run Process. CMYK printing is the standard in the printing industry however, we do not match spot/PMS colors or offer color matching from piece to piece. CMYK is a printing process that combines four inks to create other colors. Gang–run printing describes a printing method in which multiple printing projects are placed on a common paper sheet in an effort to reduce printing costs and paper waste. This method provides a more efficient process and cheaper cost but can’t guarantee color matching. Therefore, Brochure Builders can not reprint items with minor to moderate color variations from the proof you view on our proofing system to the printed piece you receive. In addition, Brochure Builders can not reprint printed pieces you received that do not color match with previously printed pieces you received. Color matching is done to the best of our ability, but it is impossible to perfectly match digital proofs with paper printing, or match newly printed pieces with previously printed pieces. All proofs are understood to be close color representations of the printed product, and will inevitably have a certain degree of color deviation from a monitor’s display, or from a previously printed piece.
