Question
Can I request a hard copy proof before my postcard order ships?
Answer
Yes. Alongside the free digital proof, you can request a printed hard-copy proof mailed to you before the full run is produced. It is worth the wait when exact color, paper feel, or finish matters for your postcards.
- Select the Hard Copy Proof option when placing your order online, or ask support by phone or email; note how many samples you need in the order comments and include the mailing address they should go to
- For postcards, a hard-copy proof costs $75 each; the cost varies for other products
- Proofs typically ship separately from the final job, usually via UPS Next Day Air, and you receive tracking so you can follow the delivery
- Hard proofs add production and shipping days, so plan for the extra time in your schedule
- Use the sample to check color, stock, and finish in person
- Once you approve it, production continues on the full order
