Rushed or poorly-prepared files can cost far more than the initial print job. Low-resolution images, missing bleed, or incorrect colour profiles can lead to reprints, wasted budget, and delays. Worse, your brand reputation can suffer when materials look unprofessional or inconsistent.
Real-World Consequences of Poor Artwork
-
Reprints and delays: Even minor mistakes can require reproducing hundreds or thousands of items, delaying campaigns.
-
Budget overruns: Correcting mistakes often exceeds initial project costs.
-
Brand impact: Colour mismatches, misaligned logos, or formatting errors can undermine credibility with customers and partners.
Where Errors Often Happen
-
Misaligned typography or text running off the page.
-
Incorrect colour profiles causing dull or inaccurate printing.
-
Missing bleed, trim marks, or resolution issues.
-
Files submitted in inconsistent formats, causing delays in prepress.
