Artwork For Branded Orders
1. Artwork Approval Process
pxrDesign will provide the Client with an artwork approval via e-mail or another electronic format. The artwork will illustrate the appearance of the Client’s logo or image, as supplied, on the ordered Goods.
No work will proceed until pxrDesign receives a duly signed-off artwork approval from the Client.
2. Branding Requirements
The Client must indicate in writing if permanent branding is required.
3. Artwork Changes and Delivery Delays
If the Client requests changes to the artwork, this will require a new layout and fresh approval. Delivery timelines may be affected by these changes.
pxrDesign is not liable for delivery delays caused by such artwork changes.
Changes requested after artwork approval and after plates/screens have been produced will incur additional costs.
4. Approval Deadline and Cancellation Fee
Clients must approve the final artwork layout within 5 calendar days.
Failure to do so will result in the Goods being returned to the warehouse and a 25% cancellation fee based on the total Order value.
No approvals will be accepted telephonically.
5. Client Responsibility for Checking Artwork
Clients must thoroughly review the artwork for errors such as:
Spelling mistakes
Incorrect item or image colours
Incorrect sizing or image placement
pxrDesign will not be held responsible for any mistakes approved by the Client, including consequential damages.
6. Additional Design Time Fees
If a Client’s artwork requires more design time than included in their selected Artwork Design Package, an extra R230.00 ex. VAT per hour will apply.
The Client will be informed in writing and given the option to continue or not.
7. Artwork Redraws and Package Limits
All Artwork Design Packages include free artwork redraws, with limits based on the selected package.
Extra redraws beyond the package allowance will be charged at R230.00 ex. VAT per hour.

These files will be sent 7 days after Order completion.
If the Client cancels the Order, pxrDesign reserves the right to withhold the artwork files.
10. Colour Accuracy Disclaimer
Clients acknowledge that artwork viewed on screens may not match final print colours.
Colours are matched as closely as possible to Pantone codes or swatches, but pxrDesign cannot guarantee exact matches due to material differences.
pxrDesign is not liable for any damages arising from colour variations.
