How do I approve a proof?

Choose “Review or changes before print” to receive a free digital proof by email. Review carefully and click “Approve” or send change notes; production starts only after approval. “Final artwork — print as supplied” receives a technical file check but no design changes or separate proof approval. The technical check is not a spelling, content, or design review.

How proof approval works

1. For the review or changes path, we prepare your proof and email you a link.
2. Open the proof on the proof portal and review every detail.
3. Click Approve to send it to production, or reply with change notes.
4. If you request changes, we send an updated proof for you to approve.
5. Once approved, your turnaround begins.

What to check on your proof

• Spelling and numbers — names, phone, email, addresses, prices.
• Layout and bleed — nothing important too close to the trim edge.
• Colors — remember screens are RGB; see our color notes.
• Size and quantity — confirm they match your order.

Approving the proof confirms the file is correct, so take your time. Questions before you approve? Contact the studio.
