Proofing
Although we rigorously proof, customers must check all proofs themselves (including initial and final) for any errors including but not limited to, grammar, details, images and sizing. Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for any errors in the final product, regardless of who made the error. It is the customer’s responsibility to check all proofs for errors or omissions.
We encourage you to thoroughly check once, twice or even three times for any errors in all proofs and/or enlist the help of a family member or friend to do so. A fresh pair of eyes helps to ensure that all details are correct. The content you provide for the stationery is copied and pasted into your funeral stationery, so you must check all details are accurate when entered into the Cherished Prints program guide or sent to us in any other way. Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for any errors in the customer supplied content. Please ensure capital letters and punctuation are included where appropriate as well as any special characters or symbols such as &, # or *.
Images
To help me to create the highest quality funeral stationery for your loved one, we recommended sending high-resolution digital photos of at least 300dpi in jpg, pdf or png format. We understand that you may not have access to the highest quality images, therefore we will do our best to work with what you have. Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for any image imperfections in the final product including, but not limited to, color, size and clarity as a result of low resolution and/or quality of the images supplied by the customer. All images must be sent in digital formats and any printed photos must be scanned before being sent to us.
Fees
Unless stated otherwise, all prices are in US dollars. Payment is required before work can commence.

Cherished Prints allows the customer 2 sets of changes for no charge. If any additional changes are requested, this will incur an additional fee.
Timeframe
Cherished Prints is committed to have the completed proof delivered to you by email within 24 hours of all content being submitted. However, this may be delayed for the following reasons:

Printing Print Ready PDF

Printing is to be arranged by the customer, however Cherished Prints may offer advice regarding printing upon request by the customer. Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for any errors, imperfections or delays incurred during the printing process. In addition, Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for material supplied by the customer for the purpose of the final product that is of an unsatisfactory quality for the printing process. We recommend supplying high-resolution images (300dpi) to ensure printing output is to a high standard. Cherished Prints takes no responsibility for any errors or imperfections in relation to the printing and trimming of the final product unless the error lies in the file formatting of the final product sent to the printer.
