Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Print with a Border?
With ALL designed material we recommend you leave 1/4" (0.25) from all surrounding edges of your printed piece. If you leave less than 1/4" (0.25), we cannot be held responsible for unequal borders from top to bottom and from side to side. This is due to the final cutting process in which some "draw" or "slippage" occurs in that cutting process. This is a print industry standard.
What is a bleed and when should it be used?
A bleed is extra area outside of your document that is trimmed off to insure proper cuts. In simple terms - your background should go off an 1/8 of an inch more than your actual print size. Bleed is not required unless it is specified under the product description. You should download our pre-approved templates to ensure that your job is designed properly.
What should my files resolution be?
All file formats must have a resolution of 300dpi/ppi and have embedded or outlined fonts if applicable. We do not accept files from word processing programs such as Microsoft Word because these programs do not provide an output option for high resolution printing. If you are unsure about your file format, give us a call and we will find the best option for you.
What type of files do you accept?
We accept .JPG, .TIFF, .PDF and .EPS files generated from all major desktop publishing programs.
Can I resize my 72dpi artwork to 300dpi?
Unfortunately, you can not increase your resolution for a design that has been created low resolution. The output will be blurry or grainy, and at times, unreadable. If your design has been created at low resolution, the file must be redesigned at high resolution in order for your order to be produced at an acceptable level of quality.
How Do I Place An Order?
All orders must be placed via our website. If you have any problems placing your order online, we would be glad to walk you through the order process over the phone. Call us today at 800.433.9298.
What is a tag?
A tag is a small graphic which we discreetly add to your final artwork on the edge of the printed piece. It reads, in 5 point type, "CLUBFLYERS.COM". Tagging your orders is the only reason we have been able to maintain such incredibly low prices. You may choose to omit this tag from your order on our product page (additional fees will apply).
Do You Guarantee Colors?
If your job is color critical, you MUST ORDER A COLOR PROOF at the time of your order. If a color proof is not ordered we are not responsible for any color variations from your monitor to our presses. We cannot stress this enough, color variations will occur, if you need to attain perfect color on your job it can only be acheived by a color proof.
Gang Run printing is the process of creating printed pieces at substantially discounted prices. One of the pitfalls of Gang-Run printing is that we reliquish the control of individual piece color to compensate for the entire run. This does not mean your colors will be drastically different, but that in regards to Gang-Run printing- the industry standard practice is to accept a overall pleasing color, which is 95%-100% accurate to the image.
Because of limitations with the Gang-Run printing process, the differences in equipment, paper, and neighboring image ink requirements- the accuracy of color reproduction is not guaranteed. By placing an order with us you agree to this limitation.
We accept no responsibility for color variations between submitted files and the final printed piece. Under no circumstances will a reprint be honored for color variations that have occurred during the printing process.
The exception to this condition is when a job is placed on an entire run, which provides full control of the color matching process. If your job can be placed on its own run, we can pull a color specific proof which our pressman will match.

How Are Your Prices So Low?
We are able to offer offset full color printing at a substantial discount from our competition by gang-running our jobs. By printing gang-runs, we print all of standard work on a large sheet, thus ganging them up together. This signifigantly reduces the costs of making plates, and other fixed setup costs typically involved in the printing process. The end result is that it saves you a ton of money.
Do two different design/names 2,500 business cards count as one 5,000 business card order?
Each quantity ordered is for 1 set of artwork. Because of the setup costs in setting up a print run, we are unable to break up orders under the amount that they are ordered. We have structured our pricing based on what it costs to print that many sheets of one piece.
Can You Prove Your Prices Are Less Than Your Competition?
Contact us at 1-800-433-9298 and we will gladly prove it to you.

What is the difference between UV and No Coating - Standard Gloss?
UV and No Coating - Standard Gloss are abbreviations for the kinds of coating used on our paper. Here are some of the core differences and applications:
UV (Ultraviolet Coating) is a clear liquid spread over the paper like ink and then cured instantly with ultraviolet light. UV coating gives more protection and sheen than either varnish or aqueous coating. Since it is cured with light and not heat, no solvents enter the atmosphere. This coating is the "laminate style" coating that you see on ultra high gloss magazine covers.
No Coating - Standard Gloss simply means that the only coating on the finished product is the natural coating of our stock. No Coating - Standard Gloss should be selected if you don't want your final piece to be extra glossy or if you need to write on the final printed piece.
For more information on UV and No Coating - Standard Gloss please visit What's UV?.

What is Gang Run Printing?
Gang Run printing is the process of created printed pieces at substantially discounted prices. One of the pitfalls of Gang-Run printing is that we relinquish the control of individual piece color to compensate for the entire run. This does not mean your colors will be drastically different, but that in regards to Gang-Run printing- the industry standard practice is to accept a overall pleasing color, which is 95%-100% accurate to the image.
Because of limitations with the Gang-Run printing process, the differences in equipment, paper, and neighboring image ink requirements- the accuracy of color reproduction is not guaranteed. By placing and order with us you agree to this limitation.
