*Proof: A proof is a print specifically for the purpose of a preliminary sample or test for the client to inspect composition. This is normally produced so that modifications can be made prior to the printing of exhibition quality prints. No colour control, cropping or composition modification are performed in the lab. Prints are supplied in standard 90 micron Polyethylene tubes which may not protect prints from minor damages. Proofs are often very similar in quality to exhibition prints however they are supplied "as is" and Redo's will NOT be considered.
**Exhibition: These prints are normally final products that are used for display or folios and where possible clients should use profiles and have made all correction to color and composition before submitting files. Exhibition prints may have as an extra service, cropping, boarders, nesting and other in-house alterations. Prices quoted separately. Prints are supplied (Flat) i.e. they will not be rolled and multiple prints are separated by acid free paper. Prints must be collected be the client from the Counter at 450 Gore st Fitzroy. Clients must provide their own folios or boxes to transport these images.
*** DATA surcharge : From time to time a data excess surcharge may be added to the value of some orders . This will apply where the " total" file size upload ( sum of all images in one order) exceeds the recommended satisfactory file size for individual images within an order. ( 6x4inch 2.5 MB) (up to 8x12in 6 MB) (up to 12x18in 10 MB) ( up to 20x40in Superproof 20MB) ( up to 20x40in Exhibition 40MB) . This surcharge is most often applied where excess file sizes are uploaded for small prints. i.e a file size of 1 or 2 MB is more than adequate for the printing of 6x4inch prints , however often users choose to upload much larger files. This Surcharge is applied as Data is charged on a per/MB basis and it costs more and takes longer to download and manage larger files.
****Profiles Please note Vanbar does not do any adjustments to your files, we provide soft-proofing profiles Here
