PRODUCTION & TURNAROUND and ORDER ACCEPTANCE
Our production time begins ONLY after an order has been "received" and successfully completed our initial processing. Orders are considered "received" or "accepted" by NationWide and are put into production ONLY when the following five conditions have been met:

(1) a WORK ORDER has been completely filled out by NationWide staff that accurately describes your project and proper pricing of the product ordered has been verified. We reserve the right to correct prices stated in error by the website or personnel, etc. of NationWide. (2) all files have been correctly submitted. (3) the client has approved the online PDF proof and has given the written approval to proceed with production. (4) NationWide will review the content of the project if necessary to see if it conforms to standards as described in paragraphs 2 and 3 above. (5) payment has been made.

Turnaround times. We try to produce all projects in an expedient manner. In some cases we fail to meet our quoted or specified turnaround time on a project. We will not be responsible for failure to meet the quoted or specified turnaround time. If your project is of a time sensitive nature then we encourage you to choose another vendor for your project.

After the initial order is placed and your files have been successfully either uploaded, emailed, etc., a NationWide representative will contact you about your project. NationWide is NOT RESPONSIBLE for items that would prevent the file from being CORRECTLY printed such as missing files, resolution, color mode, missing fonts and images, proper bleed, etc. It is also your responsibility to check backup and pagination of files, size and trim, folds, perfing and scoring. Please check the PDF proof returned for your approval very carefully. You are responsible to detect errors in the file prior to giving your approval to proceed. If a new PDF proof is necessary after one complimentary re-proof due to client error there is a minimum charge of $20 for re-trapping and ripping the file and generating a new PDF. There will not be a charge on your first cycle of changes, only changes made after the first cycle. There is no charge if the error is the responsibility of NationWide. Once an order has been approved by the client NationWide cannot accept any cancellations. There are also no refunds, adjustments, or returns after this point.

Please note that your monitor's calibration affects what you see on your screen. The colors on the printed project may differ from what you see on your screen. PDF proofs are meant only as a general representation of the color on final printed project, but they do accurately show type treatment, trim marks, trapping, etc. Please review these carefully. If this is a re-print of an old order please keep in mind that NationWide DOES NOT GUARANTEE COLOR MATCHING to a previosly printed project or proof. Even if a proof is supplied by NationWide we do not guarantee to match it. The proof is for reference only. Color will be similar but it will not match the final printed piece. NationWide does not guarantee color in any way. If color accuracy is important to you then we recommend that you choose another vendor for your project.

Although we rarely miss production schedules, the printing and pre-press process involves equipment which is subject to malfunctions and 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 NationWide can change that. Please try to plan date sensitive materials with time to spare. NationWide WILL NOT incur additional cost to meet your deadline even if NationWide fails to finish production at the stated or anticipated time.

SHIPPING POLICY
Most of our projects are shipped via a common carrier. The client is responsible for the job once it leaves our location. We do not guarantee shipping times. The client is responsible for the relationship with the common carrier. The title and ownership of the job transfers to the client once it leaves our location. The client is also responsible to make any claims on shipping damage with the common carrier.

LAYOUT AND DESIGN
The client must adhere to our layout specifications. Files that do not follow our instructions will delay your job and incur extra charges. If the client employs the services of a third party designer make sure that all file submission specifications are understood and followed. The client may contact a client representative at NationWide with any questions the client may have regarding format and submission specifications.

In the unlikely event that an error has occurred during the production of a particular job, NationWide must be promptly notified of the problem. A determination will then be made by NationWide whether the defect is of such a nature as to qualify for a discount or reprint. There will be absolutely no discounts, refunds or re-prints if NationWide is not notified of such defect within 10 days from the date that a job is shipped to a client.

PAYMENTS
We accept cash, money orders, certified bank checks, Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Company checks and personal checks may also be accepted but your project will be delayed while we clear the check unless other arrangements have been made in advance.
