Business Cards

Important Information


Schedule for business cards production

UniSA business cards are printed on a regular cycle.

A pdf for all orders is sent to customers (via email) for checking an approval before any printing is undertaken.

Artwork is created and a proof is sent ASAP, up until the deadline for approvals each Wednesday.

The schedule is:

  •     Tuesday - 12:00 noon deadline for receipt of business card orders for the current weekly print run
  •     Wednesday - 7:00 pm deadline for receipt of final customer proof approvals
  •     Thursday – files prepared and sent to printer
  •     Friday – cards printed
  •     Wednesday – delivery of completed business card orders

Please Note:

  •      cards featuring a translation may miss the current print run. Cards must be set using the correct UniSA style format for foreign languages, so the creation of art may be extended beyond    the current weekly deadline.

    • 1 Box (250 Cards)     -     $140

Urgent business card orders (by special arrangement only):

If business cards are required urgently outside of the standard weekly schedule for business card production as described above, Document Services can, by special arrangement, organise production on our Digital Press rather than via the standard Offset Press printing method.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • When printed on a Digital Press, UniSA corporate colours on business cards or other stationery  CANNOT be reproduced with 100% accuracy when compared to the same colours printed via the normal Offset Press process.
  • Digital Press business card or stationery orders are accepted by Document Services only on this understanding.
  • Therefore Digital Press business cards should only be used as an emergency substitute for standard Offset Press printed business cards.

If you wish to make urgent or emergency special arrangements to order Digital Press business cards, please contact a member of our customer services team directly (tel 26966).
