Question
Do I need to approve proofs before my order is finalized?
Answer
You have full control over how much review your order gets before it prints. There are three paths, and you pick the one that fits your comfort level.
| Option | What happens |
|---|---|
| Free Online Proof | Review a digital proof in your account and approve before printing. |
| Hard Copy Proof | Get a physical proof mailed to you to review before production. |
| Straight to Production | Skip proof approval and send the job directly to print. |
Choosing Straight to Production means you waive the review step, so only pick it when you are confident your file is print-ready.
When your order status reads Online Proofs Available, the proof is ready and waiting on your approval. Handle it from your account to keep the job moving.
- Log into your account and open the order.
- Review the proofs for accuracy.
- Approve the proofs once they look correct.
