Most Customers Want to Know Where Is My Order? The status of your order will be displayed under My Purchases. Here you will also be able to see the expected delivery time for the order. How do I redeem a voucher/discount code? Voucher codes are activated in the shopping cart. While in the cart, please click on the “Redeem it here” link to submit your voucher code. Samples We do not send out samples of our products as they are all made to order.
However, we usually have campaigns running where you can order free products (you only pay for the shipping). This could be a good way to get a first hand impression of our paper and print quality! Delivery time and shipping options Our delivery time depends on where you live, the size of the package, the weight and the shipment method that you have chosen. For more information please refer to the Shipping and VAT page. How can I pay? We support all major European payment methods, such as VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Diners, and PayPal. Shipment cost The shipment cost depends on the weight, the volume and the delivery address. All shipment costs are presented under Prices. To view the correct prices, please make sure that you select the correct product format from the drop down list. How can I get a receipt for my order? A receipt is automatically created and stored under My Purchases. Select the order you want a receipt for and press on the + sign in left column. Under the product click on "Download Receipt (PDF)" How can I verify the final product before I order? You can click on the magnifying glass next to your product during all stages in the order process. Also upon hovering over the product you can zoom in on the product. Our business customers can also review the PDF confirmation file that is made available for download on the confirmation page in the order process. Do you check the quality of my files before printing? We use an Online Proof System that analyse resolution and overall quality. Before you order the printed material we offer you the alternative of viewing a PDF (non-printable!) in order for you to check the final appearance. Note that colours, light, sharpness might vary from electronic format presented on your screen and the final printed material. What languages can I use in the text on the designs? Our design templates support most European languages, but not non-Latin characters.
In order to have non-Latin characters printed, you have to upload your own ready-to-print PDF file. Make sure that you save the text as outlines before uploading.

As a general rule if your parcel is difficult to place in your postbox then it will be sent to the local post office. If so you will be notified by your local post office. 100% quality guarantee, words from CEO We strive to offer you great quality prints at lowest possible cost.

Production Do you have a quality guarantee? Read about our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee What paper do you use? Information about what paper we use for our respective products can be found here - Paper Qualities What paper colour can I choose? We only print on white paper.
However, as we print all products in full colour, our customers are free to set a background colour of choice for their products (we print in CMYK colours). When to use our standard paper - no coating? When applying coating to our products the paper surface yields a smooth, shiny finish, with vivid colors and excellent reproduction. This option is typically chosen for superb color-contrast qualities. Coating is best used on designs that contain rich colors, illustrations or photographs. How well will the colours match what I see on my computer or printer at home? In order to see the colours on your screen as close as possible to printed version please calibrate your computer monitor. http://www.displaycalibration.com/.
