PLATE CHARGES:
The charges shown for each printed bag size are based on average copy size per ink color. For complete bag coverage, call for plate charges.

EMAIL ARTWORK:
Send individual graphic files for 2 or more ink colors to size, with composite picture indicating PMS colors. Allow 1/8" between colors or supply trapped art. Exact registration of colors not available. Screen size 65-line maximum allowed on all bags. Send artwork in the following formats only: TIFF, EPS images using Adobe Illustrator® or Photoshop®. Identify emails with your company name, asi® number, contact, order number, print name and phone number. We cannot open a graphic file without a purchase order in-hand.

FOIL COLORS FOR HOT STAMPED BAGS:
Hot stamped bags are imprinted one at a time using foil. The bags will show puckering if hot stamped copy has heavy coverage. Heavy reverse copy cannot be used. Two side stamping will show the metal plate impression through the copy. No returns or allowances based on these inherent production characteristics.

INK COLORS FOR PRINTED BAGS:
We are able to match any ink color at no charge using Pantone® ink colors by number. If you do not supply a PMS color match, we will supply the closest match available. Light ink colors on a dark bag will not show up well and are not recommended. We suggest using a reverse or drop-out and overprint to obtain the true ink color match.

UNDER/OVERRUNS:
All printed bags are subject to an over or underrun of 20% due to the custom production process used. All overruns manufactured will be invoiced. There are no overruns on hot stamped bags.
