NOTE TO SUPPLIERS OF DIGITAL ARTWORK AND IMAGES

Advertisers and artists should recognise that what they see on their screens or colour printers is not necessarily colour accurate. Colour accuracy can only be achieved by supplying a hard copy press-proof for matching on the printing press. Further, without seeing the original artworks, such as a painting, colour correction by Westwick-Farrow Publishing to achieve a match is not possible.(See information on colour.)

Supply of Digital Advertising Material:

As part of our guarantee of top-quality service, all incoming digital material is scrutinised for possible problems in reproduction. If problems are identified in your material, you will be advised of what we have found. Often, with your permission, we can correct the problem or you may wish to replace the material. We are here to assist you maximise the quality of the reproduction of your material. However, Westwick-Farrow does not take responsibility for the repair, quality or integrity of any digitally supplied advertising. Suppliers of digital advertising material are responsible for checking all files before sending to Westwick-Farrow. Any work undertaken by Westwick-Farrow to process non-compliant material will incur a charge. Due to the highly specialised and complex technical nature of image/plate setters, and to ensure the best quality reproduction of your material, Westwick-Farrow has the following guidelines.

Accurate colour reproduction cannot be expected unless material complies with our guidelines and is accompanied by an accurate press quality digital proof.
