PRICING

Editing & File Setup Fees

All files are reviewed before printing to check if they are Print Ready Files.

In order to submit Giclée Print Orders, uploaded files must be

  • At least 300ppi at the desired print size
  • RGB Color Space (Adobe RGB 1998 (preferred), or sRGB)
  • .JPG (High Quality) or .TIF, layers are flattened
  • Include any margin you want the print to have

If your print order requires additional file preparation, editing, or digital enhancements, there will be a small surcharge to set up your files. Before we send digital art files to printing we double check each one to make sure there are no obvious issues like glitches in the file, evident dust or flaws, etc., but if we need to make modifications after checking the file these charges may apply.

How to Set Up a Print Ready File

Sample 8×10 Image, with the Adobe Photoshop “Image Size Dialog” that shows the 300 ppi Resolution

Sample Export Settings to save as a .Tif or .JPG in Photoshop

Please Note: For the .Tiff, none of the “Image Compression” Settings are selected, and for the .Jpg the format option is set to “Baseline (“Standard”)”

Editing Fees on Print Files

If we have scanned your original artwork, basic image editing is included in the cost of Art Scanning

File Preparation

Image Editing (Print Files)

Our team is happy to help you figure out your print files, but this service is not included in our basic Giclee Print Pricing. To prepare your files for print, we may need to add some of the above charges to your order to cover our studio labor. If your files have multiple issues (for example: they require re-sizing and also changing the backgrounds to white) the fees may stack. If you are only submitting one or two images, we may occasionally waive the fees. However especially for large sets of images (10+ images) it becomes very time consuming to set-up files and make even minor changes, and we will likely need to charge more exactingly. Examining different versions of a file and going back and forth in email to help advise you about the project can also take quite a bit of work for us, and we may need to add a small charge in these cases.

Complex editing projects require a quote from our team, and will be billed as Studio Time. These charges are at our discretion – we are a small team, and our time is often spread between many projects and clients. While we never want to charge you unnecessarily, if your files require additional attention & work, we need to charge for our efforts.​

Before beginning a custom project we will give you an approximate quote for how long we estimate the work to take. But editing is an art-form, and occasionally it can take more time than expected based on the complexity of the work. If we feel a project will exceed the original quote, we will update you before proceeding. In some cases, we need to charge studio time for extensive help in realizing your project.

Editing Fees on Art Scans

For Art Scanning work that requires an extensive amount of editing work, we will be charging studio time for $100 / hour, pro-rated in 15 minute intervals. Cases may include: 

  • “Museum Matching” the color (i.e. color matches with a degree of accuracy beyond what can be achieved in the initial Scan & Edit)
  • Digital Restoration (removing extensive damage such as yellowing, tearing, water spots, etc.)

Additional Fees Not Included in Basic Scan Pricing

  • Creating multiple print files in different sizes $1.00 / image
  • Creating additional .jpg files $1.00 / image

    for online submissions/specific pixel dimensions

  • DVD Requests for previous scan orders $20.00 / DVD
  • File Management / Dropbox Re-Uploads $5.00 / Request
  • Color Correction $10.00 / proof + Studio Time for Edits

    or Image Adjustment after the First Initial Proof
