Production Requirements for Print Advertising
DIGITAL SUBMISSIONS ARE PREFERRED FOR ALL ADS.

You have a number of options for submitting your ad to GLYP. (Please note special requirements for Black & White, 2-Color and Full Color Ads.)

Prepare your ad to send to us as:

1. A Macintosh QuarkXpress document,
2. a TIF or EPS file on a Zip Disk, CD-Rom, or floppy disk
3. a TIF or EPS file emailed to ads@glyp.com


If none of these options are suitable, you may choose from the following.

  B&W Ads - You may submit your ad as camera-rady in the form of accurately sized velox at 100 line screen.
    - You may submit your ad as a Laser camera-ready print prepared on Hammermill Laser Plus or other wax-impervious paper with a resolution of at least 600 PPI.
       
  Two Color Ads - You may supply artwork in the format described for Black & White above, however, the second color must be submitted on a separate piece with registration marks indicating color alignment.
       
  Full Color Ads - You may submit your ad as a set of 4 film negatives - right reading, emulsion-down using 100 line screen. Newsprint proofs are desirable. Full color ads should be submitted well in advance of deadline to allow time for inspection and corrections.

Art Production Services
There is no charge for straightforward typesetting. Minor corrections can be made to ads after proofing at no additional charge. Any changes made to an ad, other than minor corrections to the first proof are subject to a $25/hr charge. Cosmetic changes that are not the error of the production department will be charged at $25 per standard change. GLYP owns copyright on all ads produced. Any special request for the production of logos, special designs, maps and illustrations, or resizing ads for other publications are subject to a $60/hr charge.

    

Ad Reproduction
The reproduction of reverses, overprints and screen tints is never guaranteed. Customer artwork, pictures and other graphic materials supplied will be saved for one calendar year, at which time they may be destroyed unless specific instructions for their return have been received. All ads smaller than a full page must be bordered to their exact dimensions. When the ad submitted is an incorrect size, GLYP will, at its discretion, adjust the border to fit, or position the ad inside horizontal or vertical rules. Reproductions of ad are available for a flat $50 fee.

Guaranteed Positioning
With the exception of our covers, guaranteed position of any ad within the directory is considered on a request basis and available for a 20% premium.

  

Deadlines
Advertising space is limited to a specific page count and early reservation is advised. Contact our sales representatives for deadline dates in your city.

  

Cancellation
Neither the advertiser nor its agent may cancel after the closing date. If by closing date GLYP has not received copy that it deems acceptable for publication, GLYP may either repeat the advertiser’s most recent advertisement which has been published or publish nothing, charging the agency and advertiser for any space reserved by them.

  

Credit Card Payments
Accounts may be paid in full by credit card. GLYP currently accepts Amex, Visa and MasterCard.

Financing and Credit
Credit may be extended to repeat advertisers with approved credit; however, a processing fee shall be assessed. Monthly payments by credit card require ‘Credit Card Monthly Payment Guarantee’ form at time of signing for automatic monthly billing. Past due accounts are subject to penalties and interest and a late charge of $10 will be assessed for each payment received 10 days or more after due date. All accounts must be paid in full by publication deadline or account shall be credited for advertising in a future edition (subject to availability).



Billing Policies
Partial payment with submission of copy is required and all ads, with a few exceptions, must be paid in full by publication closing date.



Agency Commissions
Recognized ad agencies providing camera-ready materials may receive a 15% commission based on ad agency rates. No agency may claim both agency and not-for-profit discounts. GLYP reserves the right to approve all copy.



Liability
All listings and advertisements accepted for publication are presumed to contain information that is true and that the advertiser is duly authorized to sell the product or service shown in his/her ad. Advertiser assumes complete responsibility and liability for all content (including art) and for any claims arising therefrom made against GLYP®, its officers, agents, and employees. Advertiser hereby holds GLYP harmless from any and all expenses or losses, including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees and legal judgments, incurred or suffered by GLYP by reason of any and all claims arising out of the publication of any advertisement placed by the Advertiser.
