1. Send project details
Start with artwork, quantity, product type, numbering needs, and any prior order details if this is a repeat job.
Proofing & approvals
Review before production
Proofing helps catch artwork, text, numbering, color, and order-detail issues before a custom permit job moves forward.
2. Review the proof
Check the design, text, colors, numbering notes, and product assumptions before approving the order for production.
3. Approve or request changes
If something is wrong, request corrections. If everything looks right, approve the proof so the job can move forward.
4. Production handoff
After approval, production can proceed based on the approved details and any final notes attached to the order.
Customer proof checklist
Check the details before approving
A proof is not just a picture. It is the chance to confirm the order details before production.
Product type and size
Spelling, names, dates, and permit year
Logo, colors, and layout
Numbering range or variable data
Quantity and product group
Material or use case
Shipping address and deadline
Anything that must match a previous order
Artwork cleanup
If a file is not production-ready, it may need cleanup, rebuild, or replacement before a clear proof can be approved.
Approval matters
Production should follow the approved proof and final order details. Review carefully before approving.
Clear notes help
Short, specific correction notes are easier to act on than broad comments like 'make it better' or 'fix logo.'
