Process Questions

Common questions about ordering, proofing, and delivery.

Do I need print-ready files to order? add

No. If your artwork isn't print-ready, our pre-press team can clean it up, resize it, or rebuild it from a low-resolution file or logo before it goes to proof.

How many proof revisions do I get? add

Revisions are included before your final approval — we don't send anything to production until you've signed off on the proof.

When does the 24–48 hour clock start? add

Production begins as soon as you approve your digital proof, not when you first upload artwork — so faster proofing means faster shipping.

Can I pick up my order instead of shipping? add

Yes. Local pickup is available at our Sterling, VA facility — select "Pickup" in the shipping field when you request your quote and we'll confirm a ready time.
