Each project we complete is customized to your request. As a result, we do not provide refunds. If you have an issue with any of your orders, please contact us. We always work with you to make things right. A proof for each project is provided prior to printing and we ask customers to carefully review all graphics, text, and spelling to identify and correct any errors before they are printed.  We take great pride and in the quality of service and products we provide and will work with you to prevent any problems before they arise.

CMYK and RGB are color modes used to create colours. CMYK is used in print production, and RGB is used in light emitting devices such as screens and monitors.

CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black), and is a term used to describe the four colour printing process. By using these four basic inks a printer can print a wide colour gamut.

RGB, which stands for Red, Green, Blue, is a mode used for digital and screen use as colours are created by combining Red, Green, and Blue waves of light to create different colours.

RGB typically appears brighter than the printed colors. If color accuracy is extremely important on your final prints, you must set the color models (profiles) in your design files before submitting.

We can do the conversion for you. RGB and CMYK modes are different, so it is not uncommon for some colors to shift slightly when converted. Often this color shift is quite minimal.

A vector image is made up of paths and  is quickly and easily scaled larger or smaller with no loss of quality.

A raster image is made out of a fixed number of pixels. If the image is enlarged, often the image becomes soft, blurry or pixelated. Photos should be provided in the highest resolution possible to avoid any image degradation problems when printed at different sizes. Raster of bitmap images are used for photos and scanned artwork.

Graphic files displayed on a website should not be used for print. The resolution used on website image files is too small for a clean print on most print projects as these types of images have been sized down and optimized for screen devices and faster web page loading times.

This depends on the size of the project. If you want a photo on a business card, an image file can be much smaller than if you want to print a 4’x8′ sign or a car wrap. If you still have questions if your image is big enough for your print project, let us have a look, or simply contact us to discuss.
