Color Accuracy

While all reasonable efforts will be made to ensure color accuracy, VIP Image does not guarantee that an exact colour match will occur between the Client’s artwork, imaging, files, or previously printed materials due to inherent variations in the printing process. There is a 10% color shift that may occur due to press calibrations in printing, and color may shift during the course of a single press run or between separate runs. VIP Image also cannot guarantee color matching a preview or sample as it appears on a Client’s monitor as we cannot compensate for individual display color variances. It is highly recommended that all designs and files be created in a CMYK color format in order to decrease the likelihood of color shifts occurring if a conversion from RGB to CMYK is necessary. It is possible to convert a RGB file into CMYK if the client is unable to provide one, however, many of the colors in RGB are not reproducible in a CMYK format and VIP Image does not guarantee any color accuracy when doing such a conversion. We highly recommend that the Client provides the Pantone (PMS) color codes when doing spot color printing.
