Color Difference
  • Printed (CMYK) colors are not able to match to screen (RGB) colors. Please understand that RGB (red, green, blue) colors are screen colors recently with digital led light in the back. Offset and digital printing is done with CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) on a physical paper with inks. RGB and CMYK are 2 different color spectrums and can not be compared.
  • There will always be color shifting when printing RGB in CMYK. This is an unfortunate but expected standard result of offset/digital printing not just in the UAE but anywhere in the world. We will not reprint your item because the colors on your screen(phone or PC) showing different colors from the actual printed material on the paper you received.
  • We will also not accept any claims or rejects for comparing your current printed items to: CMYK colour values you did NOT provide at the time of placing the order; a physical sample you failed to provide beforehand; an old item you printed before on a different date without providing us the order reference number.

Reprints will use the SAME file as was used in the original order, you are not entitled to submit any new file for the reprint.We can not reprint AND refund your payment, we can only provide a free reprint.

Any error caused/created by the you (spelling, typos, wrong names/titles, bad punctuation/spelling, etc.) is not entitled to a free reprint. We do not offer refund and reprint.

We will not reprint your print order under any circumstances, due to:

  • Differences in colour between the printed item compared to your digital screen.
  • Differences in colour between your previously printed material and currently printed by us. The digital proof (soft proof) sent over email is only to confirm design layout, text accuracy, image proportion and placement, it is NOT a colour proof (Hard proof or Press proof).
  • For 100% colour accuracy, we strongly recommend you to invest in an actual printed colour proof. (Additional costs and production time are required).

Start of Production

Production for your print order will ONLY start once you have approved the final digital proof in our online system. Until that happens your order will remain with a “waiting for approval” status on our system. This means we will not start any production on your job, and that may delay the initial projected delivery date.

Mistake Responsibilities

We will be not liable for any errors NOT caught or corrected by you when you review your final digital proof. Once you have approved the final digital proof, any mistakes or errors (of spelling, typography, layout, size, etc.) found in the printed material will be your sole responsibility regardless you and the designer or whoever has made the mistake.

Image Resolution Quality

We will be not responsible for poor blurry quality due to low quality images provided by the client for their design. Please submit only high quality/high-resolution images and elements. If you provide low quality images, we will presume you are aware of the blurry print quality and agreed to print it this way.
