    I like the prices but I require you to design my artwork, how long will it take for my proofs and for the print to be delivered?

  • We are more than happy to produce your artwork for you and have a team of skilled creative designers for just this purpose. If you require any artwork there is a minimum charge (depending on the product) which is available as an option at the bottom of the product page.
  • We normally take 3-5 days to produce proofs. Our team of designers work hard to produce creative artwork and so proofs can sometimes take longer than this. If your print is urgent please call Customer Services on 08452 570 575 before ordering to get an current lead time on artwork.
  • We do not undertake any artwork without an order and \ for print. We are also unable to undertake prospective artwork (artwork with the assumption that if you like the design you will place the print). If this is something you think you may require its probably best for you to seek a freelance designer or use a design agency, get them to produce your artwork (pay the fees) and then get them to send us your artwork.
  • Once we have created your artwork and if for any reason your artwork does not proceed to print we will refund the print and delivery element of your order we will not refund any artwork fees.

    Details on supplying copy and artwork instructions are available here

    I have used other flyer printers in the past the quality left alot to be desired how can I be sure your quality is upto standard?

  • AdvantageMedia guarantee the quality of all its products. Check our Satisfaction Guarantee. We are able to offer a Satisfaction Guarantee confident in the knowledge that our print quality is superior to any printer claiming to provide similar products.
  • AdvantageMedia print all of its orders in the UK at its purpose built plant. By time served, Heidelberg trained and qualified press minders. We do not send print work out and we do not print broker (buying and selling presstime from local trade printers)....we definitely do not send print to Eastern Europe where the results are questionable!
  • AdvantageMedia has invested heavily in the latest pre-press, press and finishing systems.
    Pre-Press: Our design studio outputs directly to a state of the art Computer To Plate system, no need for films, speeding up pre-press and increasing image quality. All our jobs are run at 200 line screen (lpi) and output using stochastic screening techniques, improving image clarity enormously.
    Press: Our Heidelberg Speedmaster presses have fast plate change systems built in. Our make ready times are less than 15 minutes for a full colour job....this reduces the turnaround and increases print quality as the registration is 100% from the 1st sheet to the last. (So the pile of print will be consistent from top to bottom). All Our 4 Colour presses include an inline coating unit which means your print, if required, can be varnished inline to protect the image and reduce waiting times before trimming and handling (All 5000 Flyer runs include machine varnishing as standard and at no extra cost).
    Finishing: Our finishing department uses the latest machinery to ensure you print is of the highest quality at the fastest possible speed. All our staff are trained in our ISO9002 Quality Assurance systems, this enables any member of staff spotting an issue knows where to go and how to get it corrected.
    If you are still unsure of the quality of our print Order a Sample Pack and see the quality first hand!

    I like your prices but would like a different stock (paper) is this possible?
    We can print on anything paper you require, we are happy to quote on this. But for most flyers & leaflets we find our standard 300gsm gloss art board or 130gsm gloss art stock are most suitable and are the least expensive as we print your job with other customers jobs. If you specify a different stock your job will be printed specially for you and will cost more.

    I am looking for a flyer or leaflet but am unsure what size....help?
    Choosing the size of your flyer or leaflet depends primarily on what it is intended for. Night club flyers, for example, are normally A6 as this size is easy to distribute and fits easily in pockets and handbags. Whereas business applications tend to use A4 and A5 format as they integrate well with standard brochure sizes. If the budget is critical, why not go for a smaller flyer like a Slim Jim or an A7. If you are unsure just call our Customer Services on 08452 570 575 and we will help you decide.

    I have been told that theres is no VAT on flyers is this correct?
    VAT on flyers (and only flyers) are normally zero rated with the following exceptions:

  • VAT is chargeable if the flyer is used as admission, discount on admission or product/service. An example of this is "Free (Or discounted) Admission With This Flyer".
  • VAT is chargeable if the flyer is designed to be written on for example a form is incorporated into the design.
  • VAT is chargeable if the flyer is to be used as a Postcard.
  • VAT is applicable on the delivery element of the flyers and leaflets order.

    A more detailed description of VAT print rules & regulations is a available from HM Revenue & Customs
    All Flyer prices are set at zero rated if after ordering the flyer is deemed under the current VAT regulations to incur VAT at standard rate we will notify you before we go to print.
    In the event that we are unable to ascertain whether the flyer is zero rated or standard rated, VAT will be charged at standard rate and with your agreement we will seek clarification from HM Customs & Excise if they advise us your job is zero rated we will refund you.

    What is Imprint? I resell your products how do I ensure my order is not imprinted?
    Imprint is a line of type which we discreetly add to your final artwork on flyers and posters only on the edge (we do not add it to any other type of printing). It reads, in 5 point type, "www.advantagemedia.co.uk 08452 570 575". Imprinting your flyers and posters is the only reason we are able to maintain such incredibly competitive prices in todays market place. You may choose to omit this imprint from your order (for example, if you resell our products) by placing clearly in the order comments box "please do not imprint" on every single order you place if you are in any doubt please call Customer Services on 08452 570 575 for details.

    What if the size I want printed is not listed as a product?
    If you do not see the size you wish to print as a product, you will have to pick the smallest product that your job fits into. For example, if you would like to print a 150mm x 180mm you will need to pick an A5 150mm x 220mm product. Please make sure that you pick the correct size as an error will delay your job. Give Customer Services a call 08452 570 575 if you are unsure.

    I have been quoted much more by a local printer. Are these prices correct?
    The prices quoted on the website are correct and the the all in price includes delivery to 1 UK mainland address & VAT (if applicable). You may have been quoted much more by a local litho printer because they may not employ the same "ganging and batching" methods that we have developed...the job is guaranteed to be as good as or better than a local printers...thats guaranteed!

    I have shopped around a bit, your prices are low...How do you do it?
    We are able to offer Full Color Process printing at a much lower than our competitors by running your job with many others (Batch printing). By printing batches, we print all standard flyers on a large sheet, with upto 15 others. This significantly reduces the costs of making plates, and other fixed setup costs typically involved in the printing process. The other reason that we are competitive is that we are not a broker we own the presses no one adds there little bit to the job before you pay! The end result is that it saves you loads of money!

    I am unsure what "Print Ready Files" are, please explain?
    Most design software can produce PDF, JPG or TIF files which we can print from these are print ready files. If you need help check out our Artwork Specification pages. If you are still unsure please call Customer Services on 08452 570 575 and ask for assistance on artwork.

    I only have 1 file (or I require a single sided flyer) is this any cheaper?
    Most of the flyers & leaflets we print are double sided (unless stated in the product listing). Its is not normally cheaper to print a single sided order as most of our runs are printed full colour both sides. If there is a product available thats single sided order this it will save you money on a double sided order.
    If you provide only 1 side of a double sided flyer we will leave the reverse blank, if you prefer to have both sides the same you need to state clearly in the order comments box "please print same file both sides". Please note "by default": if you supply 1 file we will leave the reverse blank.

    Important When sending files, for the purposes of clarity, please make clear any instructions in the "order comments box". Please do not send a seperate email containing instructions without placing your order number in it. Following these instructions will ensure your order is processed as soon as possible. Any queries arising from unclear instructions may delay your order, or worse, your order may go to print incomplete (as all artwork is deemed correct when sent).
