diploma or certificate we print includes a foil seal
for official embossing. If your school
or organization would prefer to outsource this
task to us, we will design a stamp and emboss seals for you. While there is no
charge for the seals or designing the stamp, a one time embossing
set-up fee will apply. The set-up fee
for circular text embossing (similar to the
seal shown above) is $60. |
|
|
| Of course,
your documents need not include an attached
seal. We will design your diploma
or certificate based on your preference
regarding seals and will apportion space in
the layout accordingly. |

Process |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1- Complete
questionnaire and submit. We'll review your information
and get back to you (usually within 24 hours).
If it is mutually agreeable to proceed, we will bill
you the $375 nonrefundable fee. |
|
|
|
2- Upon payment, we'll
develop a preliminary design of your document (usually within 72 hours) and email it
to you (as a .JPG image file) for review of the
artwork and general layout. |
|
|
|
3- Review the design
and get back to us. If changes are needed,
we'll make them and forward a free redesign (usually within in
72 hours).
Sometimes a free second redesign may be
necessary. In the rare instance even more fine-tuning
is required it will be subject to a minimum additional fee of
$50 per iteration. |
|
|
|
4- Upon your
acceptance of the design, we will collect the
specific information you want included in your
generator (internal
divisions names, degree or certification
names, etc.). We will then use this information
together with the approved design to build your generator. Upon completion of
programming and set-up (usually within 72 hours) we
will forward the link, user ID and password for your
generator. |
|
|
|
5- Access the generator, test it and create/ print sample
documents. Get back to us. If changes are needed,
we'll make them without charge (usually within in 72
hours).
Sometimes a free second round of changes may be
necessary. In the rare instance even more fine-tuning
is required it will be subject to a minimum additional fee of
$50 per iteration. |
