Question
What is the standard production lead time?
Answer
For most everyday print projects, standard production runs about 5 business days from file approval to the product leaving the facility. This is the baseline for common flat items. Specialty products and heavy finishing work take longer.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| File approval | The clock starts here, not at checkout |
| Production | About 5 business days for standard products |
| Shipping | Added separately based on the method you choose |
Specialty finishes, large formats, bindery work, and mailing services carry their own longer lead times, so always check the product page for the exact window.
