3. Check Your Email to Ensure Your Order is Correct

You will receive a copy of your sales order once the order is placed. Contact us immediately if any changes need to be made. You will also receive an email with instructions on how to upload your artwork. If any changes need to be made such as a change of shipping address, adding products or removing products, etc. are subject to a $25 order change admin fee. Artwork design assistance is also available if requested.

4. Formatting Your Artwork

We need the artwork in vector format (.ps or .ai) with a minimum of 100 dpi at size. Do not put a .jpg into a Vector format. This will cause excessive blurring of your image when expanding it to fit your item. If you have any issues here, contact your art director or request artwork assistance. Make sure your artwork will fit the product by using the artwork templates. The templates are found online under the Assembly and Templates tab underneath the product image. Finally, make sure your image has 100 dpi at size. That means if you are designing artwork for a 10' Waveline, you should have 100 dpi when that image is stretched to the template size, 124.5"w x 91.5"h. If you are ready to upload your art, and read the instructions in your order confirmation email that contains a upload link. Our Pricing includes 2 rounds of art submissions. After that we will charge $35 art-admin fee for each additional art file submission.

5. We Send you a Proof with Possible Issues

This is where is it important to leave extra room between the production time and your due date. Occasionally mishaps and technical difficulties will occur requiring further artwork editing. The proof will show you what your artwork will look like on the display. If our art department notices possible issues with your artwork we will let you know. However, we do not do copy editing. Be sure the artwork you submit is exactly what you want. The art department will only inform you on issues of color matching and possible pixelation.

PMS Pantone Color Matching:

***APG Exhibits guarantees color matching on all hard copy proofs, specified Pantone colors and client supplied proofs. Orders without indication of Pantone colors, supplied hard copy proofs or requested hard copy proofs are not guaranteed for color. ***
PMS Pantone Matching is an optional service only available when PMS colors are used in the artwork. Cost is $35.00 per order and $50.00 for orders with different multiple displays. APG Exhibits does not accept PMS matching when only PMS color codes are provided and not actually used within the artwork.
***E-proofs are for layout purposes only & are not an accurate representation of color or resolution. All approvals received on e-proofs confirms that you understand the color policy listed above.***
