6. Offset and Digital Printing

Files provided by the client to Perlinger Design for use in high quality print reproduction, must be supplied in CMYK colour mode and have a minimum resolution of 300dpi at actual size for formats up to A1 Size. Additional charges may apply where Perlinger Design is required to amend client supplied files, to ensure they are press-ready and meet printing specifications.

 

Whilst care is taken by Perlinger Design to check all images supplied for print production are high quality, the client accepts that Perlinger Design is not responsible for any client supplied images that do not print as expected. Perlinger Design supplies files to print companies and other third parties for high quality reproduction, as per their required specifications.

 

Due to variations in computer settings, on-screen colour proofing may differ between monitors and devices, and can differ from the final printed result. The client acknowledges that on-screen proofing is not an accurate representation of the final printed project, and that Perlinger Design is not responsible for any colour variations that may occur between on-screen proofs and the final printed outcome. Colour accuracy is best determined at the chosen print company, by the production of pre-press calibrated high resolution proofs. Depending upon the print company, such colour-accurate hard copy proofs may attract an additional cost, prices are available upon request.

 

7. Supply of Files

Perlinger Design does not release or supply any packaged working files used, such as Adobe InDesign, to the client until the payment for the project has been received in full.
