• Our posted turnaround times begin ONLY after an order has been "received". Orders are considered "received" and are put into production ONLY when the following four conditions have been met:
  1. An ORDER FORM has been completely filled out,
     
  2. All files have been correctly submitted,
     
  3. The customer has approved the online proof or the hard copy proof (if one was ordered) and has given the go ahead to proceed with production, and
     
  4. Payment information has been provided.
  5. If a hard copy proof is ordered, it must be signed and returned to 4over4.com in addition to the conditions above in order for a job to be considered "received".
     

  After the initial order is placed and your files have been successfully either uploaded, emailed, or snail mailed, a 4OVER4.COM rep will review your files at no charge. 4over4.com will only check your files for items that would prevent the job from being printed such as resolution, color mode, and missing fonts and images. 4over4.com will not render any opinions regarding the artistic quality of the job (for example does the job look good, are the colors used clashing with each other, is type too big or too small, etc.). If everything is OK, an online proof will be generated and an email will be sent to you directing you where to go and view your proof. If the proof looks good, you must call our offices to give us the OK to continue with production and provide payment information. Once payment information is received and an order enters production, 4over4.com cannot accept any cancellations. There are also no refunds or returns after this point.
  

• Please remember that orders "received" by 3pm EST will be treated as if "received" that day, but orders/files "received" after 3pm EST will be treated as if "received" the next business day. For example, an order for 5000 postcards which meets all four conditions stated above, that is "received" at 2:45 pm EST on Tuesday will enter Tuesday's production and will be ready for pick-up or shipment either Wednesday or Thursday. An order "received" Tuesday at 3:15pm EST will be treated as being "received" Wednesday and will be ready for pick-up or shipment either Thursday or Friday.
  
• Files are checked on a first come first served basis. Please note that due to the large volume of orders we receive, it can take up to around 24 hours before your files are checked. You will then receive an e-mail whether there is a problem with your order. If your files are set up correctly you will receive an e-mail with a link to your on-line proofs.
• Please note that your monitor's calibration affects what you see on your screen. The colors on the printed cards may differ from what you see on your screen. These proofs are meant only as a rough draft of the final printed card. If this is a re-print of an old order we strongly suggest you mail one of the old cards to us so we may try to match colors. We also suggest that if your job is color critical, you purchase a hard copy color proof from 4OVER4.COM. Please keep in mind that while we will try our best to match your old card or the color proof, 4OVER4.COM DOES NOT GUARANTEE COLOR MATCHING.
• Although we rarely miss production schedules, the printing and pre-press process involves equipment which is subject to malfunctions and/or equipment failure. We will always do everything in our power to make sure that any production problems do not delay your job. However, please note that ALL production and delivery times ARE NOT CONTRACTUAL and no turnaround time can be guaranteed. No verbal or written correspondence by anyone at 4over4.com can change that. Please try to plan date sensitive materials timely.

• Make sure you have read the accompanying information in POSTCARD SIZES and FILE FORMATS before you upload your files. ALL files must have an 1/8" bleed all around. A $25 fee will be charged to create a bleed if it has not been incorporated in your files.
  
• Critical type or images must be at least 1/4" from the edge of the card. 4over4.com is not responsible for type, art or images that are cut off if these guidelines are not followed. Furthermore, it is strongly suggested that you do not use a thin border around your postcard. This may cause an uneven frame around your card. If you desire to have a border, it should be at least 1/4" thick.
  
• You must adhere to the layout specifications explained in POSTCARD SIZES. Files that do not follow the instructions provided will delay your job and will incur extra charges. If you employ the services of a third party designer make sure that all file submission specifications are understood and followed.
• In the unlikely event that an error has occurred during the production of a particular job, 4over4.com must be promptly notified of the problem. A determination will then be made by 4over4.com whether the defect is of such nature as to qualify for a discount or re-print. There will be absolutely no discounts, refunds or re-prints if 4over4.com is not notified of such defect within 30 days of the customer's receipt of the job.

• We accept cash, money orders, certified/bank checks, Visa, Mastercard, Amex.
