| Q: |
|
How fast will I get my sign? |
|
| A: |
|
Typically 2-3 days. Actual turnaround time may vary
based on specific needs. We keep all
the major materials in stock so we
can meet our customer deadlines or
rush orders. We also try to only
work with suppliers that are close
and/or deliver same or next day.
Some jobs can take much larger if it
is a sign requiring permitting. |

|
| Q: |
|
How do I submit artwork/files? |
|
| A: |
|
We work with most professional design applications
including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe
Illustrator and Corel Draw. If the job is
cut lettering or logos we need a
Vector file. All other jobs that are
printed can be sent in a digitized
format like JPEG, TIFF, PSD, and
GIF. Transparencies MUST be
flattened to print correctly. Vector
files must be 100% vector. Artwork
can be emailed, mailed or dropped
off to our office. We do not accept
Publisher, Word or Excel documents.
They can be used to create a rough
draft or for text but not used as a
final output file. |

|
|
|
| Q: |
|
What resolution is acceptable for artwork? |
|
| A: |
|
If sending your artwork ‘to size’ then 150DPI will be
fine. We can also take files at half
scale if the file is saved at
300DPI. |
|
| |
|
|
|
| Q: |
|
Can you design/create artwork? |
|
| A: |
|
Yes! We have an in-house design staff capable of
designing any complexity of project.
Our design fee is $65 per hour and
most basic designs can be completed
in an hour or less. |

|
|
| Q: |
|
Can I get a proof of the sign before it is made? |
|
| A: |
|
Absolutely! We prefer you to review jobs prior to
production. This will allow you to
approve the colors, spelling, and
layout. Once we receive your
approval, we begin producing your
sign. This way we are both clear on
your expectations. Proofs generally
add 1 to 2 days to the standard
production time. |

|
| Q: |
|
How can signs help my business? |
|
| A: |
|
Image is everything. A quality sign can be one of the
best resources for driving traffic
to your business or event. A sign
can be one of the most economical
investments due to repeat use. One
of the first impressions a customer
will receive on your business is
your signage so finding the right
fit for your business is key. |
