FAQs

Below are some of the frequently asked questions we receive.
If you can't find the answer to your question, just give us a call on 0845 241 7383 or contact us.

Can I see a proof?

Certainly. Once we have placed your images, we will email you a full colour PDF that you can view on a computer. If you want to make any changes, we will charge £25, including a new PDF proof for you to approve.

How quickly will my calendars arrive?

Once you have approved the artwork PDF proof, you will then receive your calendars within 7 working days.

Can I supply my own files for printing?

Certainly. Preferably we would like you to send us high-resolution PDF files. If you are unable to provide PDF's, we can handle just about any file type, although we may need to charge additional design fees to covert the files into PDF's. But we'll contact you prior to undertaking additional work and seek your approval.

What size should my images be?

To ensure the best possible results, the pictures you supply should be high-resolution (300-350dpi at 100% print size). Images from web pages are normally too low-resolution. If you are unsure, please contact us.

How can I send you the files?

You can send a CD, DVD or floppy disks. Or you can email us. But the best method is to upload your files via our website, which transmits them directly from your computer to our servers. With large files, this method is more reliable than email. Our design team will give you instructions for uploading.

How many of my photos can be included?

You will only need to provide images if you are using the blank template. We will need 12 different images, one for each month of the calendar. For the cover you can supply one additional image, if you wish, or alternatively we will create a cover montage using a selection of your 12 images. Please rename the images by month so that we place them correctly.

What if I don't have any photos?

No problem. Just select a calendar from one of our categories that already have the images included or we can recommend an image and choose whatever pictures you like.

What form should I supply my logo in?

It's best to supply a logo in the generic file format of the application that was used to create it. We prefer editable EPS, high quality JPG or high quality PDF files.

Is there a deadline for placing calendar orders?

We are happy to create calendars which start with a different month to January you wish. Please give us a call to discuss. We are happy to take orders at any time of the year.

Do the calendars come with envelopes?
