File Type	JPEG
Resolution	300DPI. Smaller DPI can be provided; however it can result in low quality (pixelated) printing so we do not suggest it.
Colour Profile	Preferred colour profile is CMYK. If you only have RGB we can print it, but the colours may vary.
Files	Artwork is to be supplied at the correct scale. We will print the artwork at 100% of its actual size. No half drop repeat designs.
Copyright	We will not print any licensed artworks due to copyright infringement. Any "Disney inspired" (or alike) files will not be printed. By placing an order with Melco Fabrics you confirm correct licensing of the artwork is held and permission with the artist has been obtained to reproduce it.
Turn Around Time	Our general guide for small orders is 10 to 12 full working days from order placement. However, this can vary depending on our current printing workload. Also, if multiple fabric bases are ordered, then it may take longer as it takes more time to print the fabric bases to complete your order. For large orders please feel free to reach out to our team for an estimated turn around time. Large orders are generally printed over the weekend so it does not hold up our other smaller orders.
Dispatch Note	If you are purchasing 'in stock fabric' and 'made to order fabric' in the same purchase, your order will not be shipped until the 'made to order' fabric is in stock. If you would like the 'in stock' fabric sooner, it will need to be placed in a separate order. Once orders are placed, they cannot be split.
Minimum Order	Due to the additional work involved with custom printing, custom fabrics are sold in one metre increments.
