Colour Variation & Finishing
Whilst Print Direct LTD takes all care to avoid errors, Print Direct LTD is not responsible for any spelling, grammatical, typographical errors, incorrect colours and incorrect information in the final product.
Please note there may be colour variations between the screen and the final product. This occurs due to differences in the way colours are managed on the screen (RGB)
and print (CMYK). Screen proofing is not indicative of the final print result, printed colours can vary between printing companies, jobs and different print runs.
Print Direct LTD will not be responsible for any colour variations on printing as these factors are beyond control.
Colour variation between print machinery is something that is not always controllable , while we do our best to ensure all machines are calibrated printing the same colour on two different products eg business cards and stickers may have different end results.
For a folded leaflet and/or booklet, our tolerance is 1.5mm from the fold line
Please be aware there is also a 1.5mm off centre tolerance for trimming on some Products.

Additional Charges:
Extra revisions, expedited orders, special materials, or services outside the standard scope may incur supplementary charges. Detailed cost breakdowns will accompany any variation proposals.
Variations in quantity
We strive to deliver the exact quantity specified in your order. However, due to inherent variability in the printing process, a shortfall of up to 5% of the ordered quantity is deemed acceptable and will not trigger any financial remedy.
If the delivered quantity falls short by more than 5%, our exclusive remedy will be determined based on the type of order and current stock availability:
- Pro Rata Credit:
For orders comprised of standard stock items, if the necessary materials are not readily available and a shortage beyond 5% occurs, a pro rata credit will be applied. This credit will be calculated based on the value of the shortage that exceeds the permitted 5% tolerance.
- Reprint (If Stock Is Available):
For orders that require custom production, or when a reprint is feasible, and provided that sufficient stock exists to manufacture the missing quantity, the Vendor will elect to reprint the deficient portion at no additional charge. This reprint remedy will be executed within a reasonable period, subject to the availability of necessary stock.
If the required stock for a reprint is not available, the pro rata credit remedy will apply.
The chosen remedy—whether a pro rata credit or a reprint—is the sole and exclusive recourse for any shortfall beyond the acceptable 5% variance. Based on your order type and our current stock status.
