Because we use free-lance photographers whose schedules are often busy, shooting must be arranged well in advance. In your initial planning, discuss with your project director any events or people you'd like to have photographed for the piece. When appropriate, our designers can create illustrations to enhance your publication. Printing Because printers differ widely in capabilities, speed, quality and cost, this office chooses the printer best suited to the design requirements, schedule and budget of your project. Printers bid competitively for each publication, keeping Smith's costs down while maintaining quality.
Printing generally takes two to three weeks, depending on the complexity of the publication.
Back to top of page Delivery of Finished Publications Samples of each publication are approved by our staff before the finished pieces are delivered to you. We will arrange delivery of publications to a campus location of your choice or to a mailing service off campus. If you need publications delivered to more than one campus location, have them all delivered to Central Stores, then contact Physical Plant to have them moved to the other locations. We cannot provide storage for your publications after delivery. You should make arrangements for storage in advance of delivery.
