Please note that the shipping speed time frames provided for your order are separate from the production time frame. To obtain a more accurate estimate of delivery, it is recommended to calculate the "production time" and "ship time" together. All production time is measured in business days.
Once your order is approved, paid, and processed, the production time begins. If the order is processed before 10 am PT, production starts on the same day. If processed after 10 am PT, production commences on the following day. Any issues with files or payment may result in delays to your order timeline. The day after your order has been shipped is considered as the first day of shipping.

Borders are not recommended due to cutting shifts. If your product is not trimmed exactly on the trimming line, borders may appear uneven. Especially for small products such as business cards, even half a millimeter of cutting shift may cause the borders to look uneven.
Check your settings to make sure that overprint preview is turned on in your Adobe Acrobat Reader and/or Adobe Acrobat Pro. If the file has any spot colors and/or transparency blending effects, it is very important that overprint preview is turned on to accurately view any mixing of transparencies with spot colors. We highly recommend that your Adobe Acrobat settings always default to overprint preview on. By turning overprint preview on, you are automatically changing the settings to high-resolution display as well.
NOTE: Our Online Proofing System, cannot and will not show any of the issues mentioned above.
Have you ever opened a PDF file, and the colors are inaccurate or missing? Overprinting happens when a file is designed utilizing two or more colors to create a third color instead of knocking out the bottom layers.
When uploading your files on our website, you will be provided with an instant proof. The proof serves as a preview or image of how your designs will appear.
It is essential for you to review your files to ensure their print-readiness. You will receive an instant preview of your designs, and if you approve of the preview, your files will be sent directly to print without any further file checking.
Most of our printing is done in CMYK, so it is your responsibility to provide us with the correct CMYK color codes in your art files. However, certain items can be quoted for printing in specific PANTONE® colors. To select this option, please use the quoting option on our website or get in touch with us directly at 760-699-8889.
When preparing your artwork, it is important to avoid copying and pasting images from any website, even if they are your own. Such images typically have low resolution and are not suitable for high-quality printing. Moreover, using content from websites that are not your own may lead to printing complications due to copyrighted material.
Roadrunner Print and Ship maintains the right to decline the printing of copyrighted material, discriminatory material, FDA material, or money.
Borders are not advisable because they may appear uneven on the final product due to potential shifting during the cutting process.
The recommended text size depends on the font used in your file. As a general guideline, we suggest using a font size of at least 8 pt. for most fonts. If you're unsure, it's beneficial to print a sample from your home printer to assess the size of the font and determine if adjustments are necessary.
We offer support for a variety of programs, including Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, and Microsoft Office. However, for order accuracy, we highly recommend providing Print Ready PDF files.
Your original file needs to be created at a resolution of 300 dpi, with the exception of signage, which can be created at 150 dpi. Images taken from the Internet have a low resolution of 72 dpi and will be pixelated. If purchasing an image from a source, please make sure that you choose a high-resolution image of 350 dpi.
A low-resolution image has a lower density of dots, pixels, or lines per inch. Consequently, the print quality of a low-resolution image is inferior to that of a high-resolution image, lacking sharpness and fine details. In other words, the higher the dots per inch/pixels per inch, the greater the resolution and the clearer the print outcome.
Please note that your original file should be created at a resolution of 300 dpi, except for signage, which can be created at 150 dpi.
You must extend all images all the way to the bleed lines to avoid any uneven borders or white lines on your image when your product is trimmed.
A bleed refers to the portion of the product that will be trimmed off during the final cutting process. As we print your product on an oversized sheet that is later trimmed down, it is necessary for the images to extend beyond the trim line. This extra margin is what we call the bleed, and is crucial in ensuring that there are no white borders on your final product. In our templates, the bleed line is indicated in grey, and we highly recommend that you utilize them to ensure that your files have the correct bleed.
Quick Check:
Resolution: It is vital to set all elements to a resolution of 300 to 350 DPI, unless otherwise specified. Images sourced from the web often have low resolution, which may lead to blurry or pixelated prints.
Suggestions for preparing your files:
Note: Due to possible cutting shifts, we do not recommend printing designs with borders. However, if your design contains a border, we recommend that it falls within the safe zone guidelines and extends to the edge of the bleed line.
File Orientation: Please be sure to select the proper orientation on the order form to match the orientation of your files (horizontal or vertical). When uploading files, please be aware that the right side of your "Front" file will align with the left side of your "Back" file when printed.
Fonts:
Please ensure that your files are flattened and that all fonts are outlined. If fonts are not outlined, there is a possibility that a different font may be used in your document. To avoid these variations, please outline all fonts or save your files in JPG or TIF/TIFF formats.
File Types & Color Mode:
We accept the following file types: TIF, TIFF, EPS, AI, PSD, BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, and PDF.
For print files, please ensure that they are in CMYK mode unless stated otherwise.
If you are submitting an AI file, please ensure that all images within the file are properly embedded or linked.
Please be advised that we do not print copyrighted material, discriminatory material, FDA material, or any form of currency. Approval of all files is subject to our discretion. We reserve the right to reject services without providing a disclosed reason for objectionable content.
Prices are subject to change at any time. We are constantly updating prices to reflect competitive industry changes such as inflation, labor and material shortages, etc but are committed to giving our customers the best pricing possible.

However, any shipping expenses associated with the return are entirely your responsibility.

However, please note that an additional shipping fee will be charged for this reshipment.
This happens when an order has been shipped from our location, it means that it has been sent out for delivery. There is a possibility that the shipping carrier may have missed scanning the package along the way. However, in 90% of cases, we see that the package is delivered on the scheduled date. If, for any reason, your order is not delivered on the scheduled delivery date, please contact us atinfo@rrpns.com via email. This will allow us to initiate a trace process to locate your package promptly.
If you need to modify your delivery address, please contact our customer service team by sending an email to info@rrpns.com. We will examine your order's production status to determine whether a change can still be made.
To enable a swift process, ensure you include your order number in the subject line of the email and the new delivery address in the body of the message. It is necessary to confirm that your order has not been shipped before sending the email.
Please be aware that if you require delivery to a different location, there may be supplementary shipping costs. However, we cannot guarantee a successful update, and as such, we recommend checking your delivery address thoroughly before finalizing your order.
We will ship your order after payment has been finalized and printing (production) is complete. You will receive an email notification as soon as your order ships. The email will include the tracking numbers so that you can track your packages with the shipping carrier.
Shipping time is separate from the production time and begins after production has been completed. Shipping time is the length of time it takes for the shipping carrier to deliver your package once it has been printed. Shipping time varies depending on the destination from which your package will be shipped and delivered to, and the shipping method you have chosen.
As previously stated, all sales made on our website are final.

In each order, we provide extra prints which vary in quantity. If there are some press marks on 10-50 prints, it's highly likely that they are usually extra prints.
Please be aware that we do not make corrections or changes to your file(s) under any circumstances. We strictly print from the files you provide us, assuming they are already "print-ready". We do offer Design services as an option, but please note that there will be an additional fee for this service. Any alterations made to regular, non-Design Service orders can result in unintended changes to your files, and we want to ensure that the final product meets your expectations in terms of quality.
While we do not provide a 100% color match guarantee, we assure an 85% color match to industry standards based on the printing method we utilize.
To obtain a more accurate color representation, we recommend converting the colors in your file to CMYK mode. Please note that we cannot be held responsible for the colors chosen during the design creation process. If you believe there has been a misprint with your order, please log into your account to create an order issue.
While we strive to maintain consistency in the quality and thickness of our paper stocks, it is important to note that certain stocks may appear slightly different. This can be attributed to factors beyond our control, including variations among manufacturers and potential material shortages.
