1. Is there a limit to how many products I can upload into Out of the Box Printing?
>> There is no limitation to the number of products that are uploaded into the system. The pricing model is tiered based on number of proofs and space used to maintain your products.

2. Is there a cost associated with uploading products into the system?
>> Setup and load of products is performed by Out of the Box Printing. All image, sample text and photo box creation is included in the perform work. Once products are uploaded they are ready for personalization from the sample text/photo layout provided by you and high resolution print creation directly from the generated proof. Cost varies from $3.00 - $5.00 per design. Custom quotes are available for large volume conversions.

3. Are designs protected from copying once displayed?
>> Web images are alway displayed in an online environment to protect your vector artwork. Images are also restricted from copy directly from the personalization tool.

4. Do customers have access to high resolution artwork files?
>> No. Customers only have access to a "screen view" of web resolution images. You as the Designer administrate who has access to personlize products and access to the high resolution print files.

5. How easy is it to upload products into the applicaiton?
>> Upload of products is as simple as browse and upload.

6. Can I subsequently add additional products when needed?
>> Initially Out of the Box Printing performs the upload but provides the Designer the training to upload additional products as new ones are created.

7. Can customers personalize front and back of a product?
>> Yes, customers can personalize the front and back of a product with both text and photos.

8. What type of products can the system manage?
>> Out of the Box Printing began as a web-to-print application for stationery. Any stationery product {digital or die-cut} can be personalized from the system. Additionally, any product {plates, stickers, mugs...} with personalization can also be loaded into the system.

9. Can I load my fonts and colors into the personalization tool?
>> Yes, the system was designed with your custom fonts and colors in mind. Fonts are converted to a view-only version so licensing is protected. There is a one time setup fee of $250.00.

10. Can customers change a single character of text versus a line of text?
>> Absolutely! Out of the Box Printing was developed from day 1 to be a true word processor application. Customers can format a character, group of characters, line of characters or an entire paragraph.

11. Does the personalization tool offer line and letter spacing?
>> Yes. The personlalization tool supports leading and kerning and has been designed to mimic the same capabilities of a typesetter but as an easy to use toolset.

12. Does the system support photo management?
>> Yes. Your customers can upload as many photos as your product was designed to support.

13. Can I set products up for personalization to look just like my sample products?
>> Yes. Sample typeset is created directly from your template files. Products displayed in the personalization tool look just like a finished products but have full editing capabilities.

14. Can I "lock" floating text boxes?
>>Yes. You can lock text boxes in the editor both vertically and horizontally. This is helpful when customers are personalizing die-cut invitations or text that may intrude into bleed or cut areas.

15. Can I integrate the personalization tool directly into my website?
>>Yes. The strength of the personalization tool is its integration. The personalization tool is not intended as a stand-alone application. However, if you would like to use the system without a front-ended website you may create and manage proofs from the administrator panel.

16. Is there an additional fee to interface the tool into my website?
>> This can be answered by you. We provide an interface document that details the integration which is very simplistic. If you do not have a web programmer, you can employ our programmers billable at half hour increments.

17. Can I design the personalization tool to look like my existing website?
>>Yes. Customized graphics can be placed into the editor to brand it to your website for a $250 fee. Also a custom flash load can be used on the front of the loading of the editor for a $300 fee.

18. Can I use my existing ecommerce solution?
>>Yes. We are not an ecommerce solution. Out of the Box Printing is intended to interface to your existing shopping cart application. We do have many partners that provide ecommerce solutions should you need one.

19. Does the system generate a print file directly from the proof?
>>Yes. You as the Designer define what type of print file should be generated from a proof. If the product is a digital product, then YES, a high resolution print file defined by your printer's specifications is the file generated back to you. If the product is an imprintable product, then the file generated is a high quality text overlay that maintains exact positioning for printing to pre-printed cardstock.

20. What is the quality of the print file generated?
>> A high quality file is generated from Out of the Box Printing for both digital print ready file or text overlay files.

21. Do I have the ability to modify the proof generated by a customer?
>>Yes. You always have the ability to modify a proof before it is printed. The system automatically generates an email with a link to the customer proof. You are able to see/modify the proof before you commit it to print. You may even email your changes to your customer for new approval prior to printing.

22. What is the price for the system?
>>The price for Out of the Box Printing is based on a monthly tier of proofs generated each month. Each month your proof volume resets to 0 and is recounted at the end of the month. You can link directly to the Pricing Page to see the tiers.

23. Do you have sample sites that I can see?
>> Yes. Link to our Consumer Page to see some of our clients in action. Each client defines the process by which personalization is envoked and the workflow performed to place an order.

24. Do you offer a model if I only sell Wholesale?
>>Yes. We have many Designers that only offer products Wholesale. While we are unable to provide logins to clients' pages, we have created a demo presentation so you can see "how" a dealer could process an order. Again, the design and workflow is completely up to you! Click on the image below to take a test drive;
