How
long does it take to process an order?
Once your Laminated card order is submitted we can usually
generate a proof within 2 business days. After you have
approved your proof we can print and ship within 5 business
days. If you order Quick*Start Cards or Photo Quick*Start
Cards before 12:00 noon PST they are usually printed
and shipped the same business day for delivery the next
business day.
How
do I get started?
To place a Laminated card order you will need to download
our PDF form pack. It contains
every order form you may need plus file submission specifications
and an order submission checklist.
What
do you need to start my order?
To start an order we need the following 5 things:
1. Camera Ready Artwork - If your company uses a PantoneColor
for their artwork please specify the PMS Number or the
equivalent CMYK values. (We have logos for most major
franchises.)
2. Photograph - For best results please submit an original
glossy print photo. We can use other types of images,
ie. digital, home scanned etc., but quality may be compromised.
3. Card Content - Print clearly or type the information
exactly as you wish it to appear on your card. If you
would like to submit a mock-up our artists will do their
best to make it look great.
4. Shipping Address - If the address you would like
the cards sent to is different than the one appearing
on your card please let us know.
5. Payment - We accept credit cards, checks and plain
old cash.
This information is also available in our PDF
form pack.
Can
I send you my stuff by email?
Yes, you can but without a hard copy for reference we
have nothing to color match to. We will not guarantee
a color match for photos or artwork that do not have
a hard copy reference or PMS numbers.
What
file format do you need?
Please download our PDF form pack.
Page 6 is our File Submission Specifications sheet and
will give you all the information you need.
Can
I really get Quick*Start Cards the next business day?
Yes!
95% of Quick*Start orders placed before 12:00 noon (Pacific)
are delivered the next business day. The remaining 5%
can take up to 3 business days depending on the time
the order was placed and the delivery location. Press
or delivery problems are rare, but can cause delays.
What
is the cost of your cards?
Please download our PDF form pack
for our complete collection of order forms and informational
documents. You will find pricing for each product on
the appropriate order form.
Can
I place an order online for Laminated business cards?
We currrently cannot accept orders for Laminated business
cards online. It is our intention to offer that in the
future as software updates allow. For now please download
our PDF form pack and use the
Laminated Cards Order Form, the "We're all on the
same page," page, and the Order Submission Checklist
page to complete your order. Mail everything to us at:
Advantage Printing, 2717 N. Perry Street, Spokane, WA
99207.
Where
can I download order forms?
You can download our PDF form pack
here.
What
kind of photo do I need to send?
For best results please submit an original glossy print
photo or the highest resolution digital original that you have. We can use other types of images, ie.
home scanned etc., but quality may be compromised.
How
can I send my logo?
We have logos for most major franchises. If we do not
have your company logo, we prefer to receive a vector
graphic file (ie. Adobe Illustrator
file.) If you do not have that please send us a camera
ready art slick that we can scan along with the PMS
number (or CMYK values). We cannot use JPEG files for
logos as the quality just isn't up to snuff.
