GUARANTEE

We guarantee the quality of the printing with a reprint or money back if your order shows any manufacturing defects.

METALIX

PRINTING

Payment is your approval to print the digital proof of your order. Commercial print uses the CMYK colour system which is different than the RGB system used on a computer screen. There may be a minor colour variation in print compared with the digital proof displayed on your screen. This does not warrant a reprint.

ROUNDED CORNERS

Credit card style rounded corners. A paid option available for most cards.

SCORING

An indent pressed across the card which allows a neat and accurate fold. Used for Double business or Greeting cards.

SHIPPING

Most orders are printed and shipped within 5 working days once the design has been approved. Shipping to most Australian destinations INCLUDED in the price.

TEAR-OFF PERFORATION

Line of perforations across a card to make a tear-off tab.
