How it Works
- We check your design within 24 hours (next business day for weekend orders)
- For Automated Art Work checks you review our feedback on the submitted ticket
- You approve before we print
When ordering custom printed products on our configurator page, you will notice the option to add our Automated Artwork Check Service to your order. If you require additional support with your design, please select this service.
Should you not opt for these additional checks, your artwork will undergo our basic automated check, to ensure that your design meets our minimum printability requirements.
The print process is technical, so files and language can be complicated. We will always strive to identify design issues where we can, however we cannot guarantee this for orders that have opted out of our available Artwork Check Services.
When choosing our Automated Artwork Check Service:
You will be sent an email where you will have the opportunity to approve/reject your design:
Approve: if you approve your design, you will receive a confirmation email & your design will be moved to the print queue.
Reject: if you reject your design, you will receive an email from our Customer Service Team within 24 hours (or the next working day if your order was placed over the weekend), asking for further details about your rejection. A member of our Customer Service Team will support you where possible to ensure that your design is print-ready.
Once you have approved the amendments, your artwork will be sent to the print queue. If you do not respond to the email within 5 working days, the link will time out, and your original design will be automatically sent to the print queue.
Terms & conditions of service
Automated Artwork Check Service
Whilst every effort is made to ensure that your report is accurate, this is an automated service. We strongly advise that you review your design carefully before approving your artwork; Avery cannot be held responsible for design-related issues, should you be unhappy with the final print after approving your artwork. We also cannot guarantee that any spelling, punctuation & grammar mistakes are identified and we strongly advise you to check your design prior to ordering.
If your choose to reject your design, your order will be placed on hold until the amendments have been approved by yourself. Contact will be attempted via the email address provided on your order and in the event that we receive no contact after our email attempts, we will continue to print your original artwork (to reduce any further delays with your order).
