All users of our website and/or North America Display Corporation products and services are subject to the following terms and conditions and other applicable laws. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, please do not use our website, products, or services. Resale IdentificationPrior to accepting orders on North America Display, we require all customers to submit one of the following documents, which identifies your business as a reseller in the sign, graphics, or advertising industries. United States Customers:
Production ScheduleProduction time starts the first working day after artwork is approved for printing, not including shipping. Normal turnaround is three to ten working days unless requested otherwise. Some orders with less than a three working day turnaround will have a rush charge; see below for specifications. Rush OrdersNorth America Display does not charge extra fees for rush orders. However, all items will be required to ship priority or overnight. Please do not ask us to rush and then request ground shipping. For those rush jobs where North America Display Corporation has only one chance to fully produce the graphics, the graphics will not be guaranteed. Should your graphics have a defect we will happily reprint the defective graphic/panel after your show at 30% of the standard price. Printing GraphicsWe appreciate your cooperation by giving us as much time as possible to produce your graphics. In the event your project finishes early it will ship via the scheduled method. Once your graphics have been received by our Graphics Department, we will review your graphic files to ensure that your artwork meets the requirements outlined in our specifications to produce the highest quality product. If any modifications or a change to the artwork needs to be made, you will be notified, and you will have the opportunity to submit new artwork with the necessary changes. If you prefer to have our Graphics Department make the necessary changes, you will be billed at a rate of $100.00 per hour. Once our Graphics Department has reviewed and approved your artwork, you will receive a PDF proof via email. You will receive the proof within one (1) business day of submitting acceptable artwork to us. You must send back an approval e-mail before your job is moved into production. Production time starts the first working day after approval e-mail is received and acknowledged. PLEASE NOTE: An e-proof is only to ensure proper art elements are there and size is correct. It does not ensure proper resolution or color accuracy. Once your approval has been received, the printing process will take 3-10 days. Please note that these production lead times are from the date of approval, not from the date that the artwork was received. If you have purchased graphics that are less than our standard lead-time, then your graphics will ship standard overnight and may not be guaranteed. If you purchased graphics with ground shipping and less than standard lead-time, one of our sales associates will contact you. ShippingAny Changes to shipping address must be received in writing to [email protected] prior to shipment. Shipping is FOB Beaverton, OR. Orders requiring fulfillment must be quoted. Fulfillment charges will apply to all orders with 10 or more shipping addresses. Physical Proof Service - Your colors verifiedOur physical proof service is perfect for your important projects because it allows you to see what the finished product will look like before your graphic is sent to the production department. North America Display Corporation cannot guarantee color accuracy or image resolution unless a printed proof is requested. Color MatchingWe will match up to two colors at no charge using your PMS codes, provided that you supplied a file that can easily be modified. We print digitally in CMYK and use PMS colors as a guide; therefore the colors are not exact. We highly recommend that you order a printed proof, in the event that you do not, we will match as close as possible to the PMS colors proved, but are not responsible for the colors not printed to your liking. The customer will be responsible for the overnight freight on printed proofs. You’re submitted files should be fully approved and print ready; North American Display is not liable for the accuracy of any “predesigned artwork” submitted by client. When reordering, colors MAY be slightly different then original order.
