The short answer is that it depends!

The better answer is that it mostly depends on if the job is digital or offset, and where in the process the job is at.

Many times, if the order has been approved just recently that day, it will be early enough in the process to adjust specifications such as quantity, paper stock, and even the artwork itself. This is particularly true of digital jobs. A digital job can be changed all the way up until it is printed. Please note that if the artwork is changing, it may result in a file editing charge. Please also note that if the job has already been printed, any required changes at that point will result in a reprint, which may increase the cost dramatically.

If the job is an offset order and has been approved, very often our team will begin the process by creating press film or plates right away. Most likely we will be able to accommodate for changes within quantity and paper stock at this point, but if there is a change in the artwork after this point in the process, there is a fee to pay for the remake of the necessary press film or plates. Please note that if the job has already been printed, any required changes to the artwork at that point will result in a reprint, which may increase the cost dramatically.

Changes to finishing and delivery options can be changed at any point while the job is still in the shop at West Chicago Printing. Please call to discuss the cost for your job’s finishing and delivery.
