Price follows page count, lettering density, and the cap you choose

What moves a quote

Longer sequences, costume changes mid-issue, damaged source scans, and a request for more than one print companion all add time. A cap of fifty needs more paper checking than a cap of ten; it does not change the motion file. Rush work inside four weeks is rarely accepted because colour holds need to dry in the eyes, not only on the calendar.

Travel to the atelier is not billed. If we must view oversized original boards off-site in Great Britain, we quote mileage and a half-day sitting separately.
