Proofing, Color Matching & Print Quality
ScottLitho.com does not guarantee color matching or ink density on JPEG or PDF screen proofs. Screen proofs will predict text accuracy, image proportion and placement, but not color or density. Because of differences in equipment, paper, inks, and other conditions between color proofing and production pressroom operations, a reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed job is to be expected. When variation of this kind occurs, it will be considered acceptable performance.

Match-print color proof guarantees a reasonable likeness to the final printed pieces. While a match print will accurately predict color, screen pattern and dot placement, a reasonable variation between the match print and the final printed piece is to be expected. When variations of this kind occur, it will be considered acceptable performance.

Only a press proof will represent the final print job with one hundred per cent accuracy and no variation. You must be present at ScottLitho.com during press proof make-ready. Press proofs will be billed at the rate of $150.00 per press set up.
Any press time lost or alterations/corrections made because of the customer’s delay or change of mind will be charged at ScottLitho.com’s current rate.
You must provide high-resolution images suited to the offset printing process. ScottLitho.com is not liable for images printing as bit maps when this is caused by customers providing low-resolution images.

Customers must provide all color printing images in CMYK format. ScottLitho.com is not responsible for any color shift that occurs in conversions from RGB to CMYK color modes.

Trapping is a design function. We will set trapping if we design your documents or if you ask us to do so. Otherwise, ScottLitho.com will assume you have trapped the file correctly. Incorrect trapping will not be grounds for a redo or cancellation unless ScottLitho.com has set trapping.
While ScottLitho.com will respect the gradient density of each color in a duo-tone, we are not liable for the final appearance of a duo-tone unless you order a press proof.

Text smaller than ten points created in Photoshop may print in a pixelated or bit-mapped manner. In such instances ScottLitho.com will not be held liable for bit-mapped text. To avoid this it is best to use programs such as QuarkXpress or Adobe Illustrator to create text. Ordering a match print proof will predict whether bitmap text is a potential problem.

Full color jobs that contain large solid areas of black ink should have the black set up as CMYK black. ScottLitho.com will not be liable for printing a consistent, solid and rich black if you have not done so. Scottlitho.com recommends 30C 30M 30Y 100K.

Any re-print request for either defective printing or insufficient quantity must be submitted in writing and within five business days of receipt of merchandise.

ScottLitho.com prints every project in keeping with "pleasing color" standards for the printing industry. ScottLitho.com makes no guarantee that the color you see on your computer monitor or your color printer will approximate your finished piece printed via the CMYK process. Wide variation in color spaces, technologies and calibrations of different monitors and printers may preclude an exact match.

Customer corrections are to be returned to us as a master set marked "OK," "OK with Corrections" or "Revised Proof Required" and signed by the customer.
