WHATS THE DEAL WITH COLOR MATCHING?
We offer 4 options to color correct your art prints.  Please keep in mind that at best Giclée prints will be about 98% true to the color of the original artwork.  Here is how its done:

1.  Let Mindzai do it - Our computer monitors are calibrated as well as all our papers profiled to our printers' color gambit.  We will print a test swatch, compare it to what we see on OUR monitor and make the appropriate adjustments to dial in the color.  In order for us to do the best job possible we need a high resolution 300ppi (or higher) file in Adobe RGB 1998 color space. There is no charge for this service.

2.  Email Proofs - We print a proof (as above) and email it to you for a list of adjustments you would like to see.  We charge $75 an hour for color matching services and it can take between a half hour to 2 hours of work.

3.  Physical Proofs - We print a proof and mail it to you for your review and suggestions.  Again we charge $75 an hour for color matching and $25 per proof we print and mail.  Keep in mind we print all proofs at a reduced size or just a test strip of your art to save on printing expenses and shipping costs.

4.  Mail Us Your Original - Mail us your original art, we print a proof, color match to the original, then once dialed in we email you a photo of the proof next to the original.  This also costs $75 an hour and can take up to 2 hours.  Keep in mind if you ship us your originals insure them for full value and let us know what to insure them for when we return them to you.  Additional shipping and handling fees may apply.
