Please Note: Black Anchor Design specializes in creating professional, print-ready design files rather than providing physical printing or production services, as we are not a print shop. We do not handle rush jobs without charging an extra fee; we are not obligated to overextend ourselves just because someone else has failed to manage their time. To ensure high quality, accuracy, and proper coordination, clients should plan for a typical two-week timeframe to accommodate design finalization, file preparation, and vendor coordination before submitting files to their chosen print provider. This allows for thorough quality control and any necessary adjustments prior to printing.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What files do you need from us?
High-resolution assets are required, ideally vector logos (AI, EPS, SVG), print-ready PDFs with bleeds and crop marks, and images at 300 DPI at final size; brand guidelines and Pantone values help ensure color accuracy across print runs.

To start, contact Black Anchor Design for a consultation. We’ll discuss your business goals, target audience, and branding vision. After understanding your needs, we’ll create a customized plan that helps establish your brand’s identity and sets you up for success.

How do proofs and revisions work?
Projects can be produced in CMYK or spot/Pantone, with standard and premium paper stocks, coatings (matte, gloss, soft-touch), and finishes such as foil, emboss/deboss, die-cuts, and specialty bindings; recommendations are tailored to budget, quantity, and use.
