Additional costs incurred due to Client corrections will be passed on to the Client as part of the total charge.

P. 3 Print quality. Every effort will be made to obtain the best possible colour reproduction on customer’s work but because of the complex nature of the processes involved, Lucid cannot guarantee an exact match in colour or texture between any materials or proofs supplied either by us or the client and the printed article.

P. 4 Quantity supplied. Every effort is made to produce the exact quantity of items ordered. However, some variation is inherent in the print process and so the Client accepts that minor variations in quantity are possible. These do not affect the price charged.
