Proofs

To ensure accuracy on color ads, we strongly recommend that you submit a color hard-copy proof (SWOP preferred) of your ad. The proof should be printed at 100% actual size and show bleed and trim marks if applicable. InTech is not responsible for color accuracy if advertiser does not provide a color-accurate proof (e.g., color laser prints are not color-accurate proofs).
