ORDERING & ARTWORK

 

  • How do I know where my job is?
    As a registered trade customer, you can use the online ordering system to view the status of your job. Once it is dispatched (by freight) you will see a consignment number in the delivery notes and in your dispatch confirmation email.
  • What if I’ve uploaded the wrong artwork file?
    Contact us as soon as you realise the mistake and we will endeavor to remove the file from the system before it goes to print. Due to our tight turnaround times, in some cases it may be too late to replace artwork and you will be charged so please be very careful when uploading your artwork.
  • Can you fix my artwork?

    Yes! Our artFIX prepress service can correct most files to make them print-ready for a small fee. Contact artFIX@cmykhub.com.

  • How long will it take to print my job?
    Under normal circumstances we print a range of business cards for next day dispatch, along with 100gsm Laser and 150gsm Gloss. Most other products are produced within 3-5 business days.
  • Why do I need to supply my 2 sided artwork as 1 PDF?
    To avoid any delays!
    To use a business card as an example; our software imposes page 1 as the front and page 2 as the back. If the files are supplied separately our prepress staff need to manually combine the files.

    This adds time and creates an opportunity for error. When files are supplied incorrectly, our prepress staff will send you an email asking for files to be adjusted.

    If you are ordering a standard product (excl. booklets), we aim for less than 4 working days, but we will let you know a turnaround estimate on job confirmation.
  • How do I supply artwork for Booklets?
    Booklet artwork needs to be supplied as single page spreads (eg: a 24pp book needs to be supplied as a 24 page pdf ). Pages must be in sequential order.

  • Can I cancel my order?
    Unfortunately once an order is placed, it is immediately scheduled in the print queue and in most cases can’t be cancelled. We hope you understand, as our priority is to keep turnaround times as fast as possible for our customers.
