Electronic proofs do not show transparency, over print issues or color change from RGB or Pantone to CMYK. Please note, application of UV coating or lamination may affect or change the appearance of the printed colors. We are not liable for the final color appearance of a laminated product(s).

Customer is Fully Responsible for all that is Contained in the Final Approved Proof

We will reproduce color from submitted print-ready files as closely as possible, but cannot exactly match color and density.

By placing an order with us you agree to this limitation. We will try our best to match the gradient density of each color, but we accept no responsibility for color variations between submitted files and the final printed piece or the actual artwork or product they represent.

Under no circumstances will a reprint be honored for color variations that have occurred during the printing process. We are not liable for color matching or ink density on screen proofs that you approve. We will guarantee color accuracy and match if you order a hard copy proof from us.
