From Artwork to Approval.
Exactly what happens after you check out — so there are no surprises between order placement and production start.
-
01
Order placed + artwork submitted
After checkout, your order enters our queue. If you chose Upload Later, you'll receive a secure upload link valid for 7 days.
-
02
File review (1–2 business days)
Our prepress team reviews your files against the product spec: bleed, trim, safe zone, resolution, CMYK, fonts, and (for EDDM) indicia placement.
-
03
Digital proof delivered
We email a proof PDF. You review it on screen. Color variation from final print is normal — see our Service & Production Policy for detail.
-
04
Approve or request revisions
Approve to start production. Or request revisions (limited rounds per scope). Custom-design orders follow the design studio's revision workflow.
-
05
Production begins
Once the proof is approved in writing, the job moves into print production. Changes after this point may incur additional fees.
-
06
Ship or mail
Print-only orders ship with tracking via partner carriers. EDDM orders are prepared for USPS drop on your scheduled window.
