TEMPLATE ENGRAVING
A process that duplicates
simplified logos or stylized print is available on the engraving
panel of most writing instruments. Please be sure to submit
camera-ready artwork of your design when ordering template
engraving, and Cross will prepare one of the following for your
approval:
- Color paper proof
- Black/white paper proof
- Actual engraving of your design on a Cross writing instrument
|
IMPRINTS
Cross will recreate your company trademark or
symbol on Solo or solid-color Radiance (Ebony, Navy, Forest Green,
Burgundy) writing instruments using an imprint image reproduction
process. Extremely accurate design and color reproduction is
possible. Submit camera-ready art and Cross will prepare one of the
following for your approval:
- Color paper proof
- Black/white paper proof
- Actual imprint of your design on a Solo or solid-color
Radiance writing instrument
A PMS color match fee will be
charged for colors other than standard imprint
colors.
TYPESETTING
The minimum
size for typesetting for most decorations is 6 point type. Cross
reserves the right to reset all imprint copy and logos to fit the
imprint area and/or provide the best quality
imprint.
ARTWORK/E-MAIL Camera-ready, color separated,
black and white artwork is required to avoid additional charges. Art
changes required to modify artwork that is not useable will be
assessed a $60.00 per hour fee to
reconstruct and lay out. Faxed artwork is not acceptable. Cross also
accepts the following electronic art files provided they are on an
IBM formatted disk: .tif, .pcx, or .cdr. Files can also be e-mailed
to ADsources.com at the following address: artwork@adsources.com. Please
reference your purchase order number, full company name, contact
name, and phone number when e-mailing art.
TOOLING Tooling
(screens, dies, plates and templates) remains ADsources.com
property. Unusual emblem shapes may require additional tooling
charges. Tooling will be held for 48 months after the last order
to manufacture and then will be discarded if no manufacturing order
is received within that 48-month period. If tooling is discarded due
to inactivity, new set-up and tooling fees will apply.
EMBLEM QUALITY For maximum security, Cross
jewelry-quality emblems are double-pegged and riveted to the clip of
writing instrument caps. Color enamels are hardened to protect
against peeling, chipping or cracking. Each and every emblem (not
just lot checks) is inspected for proper dimension, security, color
correctness, design definition and alignment to the clip.
EMBLEM INVENTORY Cross will hold prepaid emblem
inventory for your account for 48 months. Emblems remaining in
inventory after 48 months will become the property of A.T.
Cross.
LOGOS AND TRADEMARKS All writing instruments with
corporate logos or registered trademarks are shown only to
illustrate Cross's logo reproduction capabilities. Merchandise
bearing logos can be purchased only by the organization to which the
logo or trademark belongs and only through authorized Cross
distributors.
ENGRAVING Please send a separate typed order
specifying writing instrument(s) or desk set model(s), desired
engraving style and the specific wording or letters to be engraved.
Do not send us the writing instrument(s) or desk set(s) for
engraving as this takes more time and increases your handling and
mailing costs. Production lead time for engraving orders is 3
working days from factory receipt of acceptable engraving
list.
CANCELLATIONS/CHANGES TO ORDERS Firm orders which
are cancelled or decreased while in process will be assessed a
service charge for the labor and those materials expended through
the date of decrease or cancellation.
INCREASED
ORDERS Increases to orders already received by Cross may be
treated as new orders.
SHIPPING CHARGES F.O.B.
Factory in USA. Freight prepaid by us and billed on invoice. On
orders calling for 2 or more drop shipments, a $7.50 fee for 2nd and additional
locations will be
assessed.
RETURNS Emblematic/engraved/imprinted
merchandise may not be returned. Plain merchandise returns must
be authorized in writing from Cross and will be subject to a 15%
restocking charge. All authorized returns must be made freight
prepaid within 60 days of the original shipment.

received must be submitted within 30 days from date of
shipment.

DIE-STRUCK EMBLEMS
For die-struck emblems, select either plain (without color) or
color-filled with oven-baked enamels in single or multiple
colors. Submit unmarked artwork, i.e., no staples or tape on
artwork (letterheads, business cards, repros, glossies, etc.,
depicting actual colors) of your design and Cross will prepare
one of the following for your approval:
Color paper proof
Black/white paper proof
Actual emblem of your design on a Cross pocket writing
instrument or on the Pen Purse, in the case of Ladies' units |
SILK-SCREENED EMBLEMS
A highly refined image reproduction process using single or
multiple colors on a variety of standard emblem blanks.
Extremely accurate design and color reproduction is possible.
Submit camera-ready art with appropriate color swatches or PMS
colors and Cross will prepare one of the following for your
approval:
Color paper proof
Black/white paper proof
Actual emblem of your design on a Cross pocket writing
instrument or on the Pen Purse, in the case of Ladies' units
The sample set-up charge is for an existing silk-screen emblem
design for which no stock exists, thus requiring machine set-up.
A design change requires a new screen/set-up and will be
invoiced at the full tooling charge. |
